A Piece of Art

I would love to say that I am one of those moms who love the stuff their kids make. While it's true that I enjoy their art projects, the sheer volume of paper and crap that my kids make would make an indian cry. Somewhere, in South America, there's a little corner of the rainforest with Erin's name on it. She has actively decimated some frogs natural habitat because she is so dang crafty.

Therefore, I am going to post pictures of some of my favorite works of art by "real" artists.

Starry Night, by Vincent van Gogh

The Persistence of Memory, by Salvador Dali

Love Vermeer, Van Eyck, Michaelangelo and da Vinci too. Now to a painting I want in my house.

This just reminds me of my boys. I love it! Someday when I can buy whatever I want, I'm going to get it.


One day, when my kids are all in school, I'm going to take an Art History class and re-learn all of the things I've forgotten since the 10th grade.
