I love art. Thanks for sharing. The one thing I miss about not living in a larger city - access to an art gallery. When I lived in NYC, I frequented the MOMA & the Met frequently. I do miss them.
A painting inspired by first novel. :)
Parrish was a fantastic artist ... literally and figuratively. Still enjoy seeing his work.
And the piece about the collaboration between him and Louis Comfort Tiffany on The Dream Garden is definitely worth the read.
