A Visit to the Met

Every time I visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, I find new things to entrance me. Here are some old favorites, as well as a few new gems.

Degas' "At the Milliner's" (1882)

Degas' "At the Milliner's" (1881)

Degas' "A Woman Ironing" (1873)

Caravaggio's "The Denial of Saint Peter"

Henri Fantin-Latour "Portrait of a Woman" (1885)

View of a window from an ancient indoor fresco

Half of the museum was cordoned off because half of the guards were off for the holiday. This was how close I could get to a Rembrandt... sadface.

Beirut on the cobblestones in Paris

Blogotheque does the coolest "Take Away Shows". Check out this one with Beirut.

Puddles of Myself Podcast

So having become an avid listener of podcasts the last few years, I finally made one with writer/podcaster Matt Domino of the Puddles of Myself blog. Check out episode 17 where I attempt to be articulate about painting and my methods, among other things.

If only I could grow a beard...

My personal favorite at the 2007 World Beard Championship.



Second favorite -- the whole image composition is amazing.

Animal Portraitist

Tara Young's beautiful "handmade portrait" video about Photographer Sharon Montrose, which I came across on CRAFTzine's blog. Just mesmerizing.

Magnetic Growth Jewelry

French industrial designer, Laurent Milon, creates these mesmerizing magnetic rings using frozen iron powder with ferromagnetic precious metals (ex. silver, nickel, and copper). Found via Teagan Tall's awesome blog.
