ART LOVE
Hey Divas,
Posting photos of ME all the time can get boring so I've decided to occasionally post about my other interests. Today, I share with you my love for ART.

I saw The Mona Lisa when I visited the Louvre when I was 16 on a class trip to France. I think they cleaned up the painting since I saw it, because this photo looks much brighter and clearer than the painting when I saw it. It was small and dark. It had a mesmerizing quality; I couldn't take my eyes off it. You could gaze it at all day.
Excellent choice of great works of art, Kiah. Once again, you have a brilliant eye! Thanks for this Friday afternoon treat. Especially since it's a rainy gray day here in the Northeast, as we await winter storm Nemo.
i've always liked "the persistence of memory". it comes to mind whenever i see an art pieces that even remotely resembles it.
have a lovely weekend.
