MoMA!

Saturday my family took a trip south to NYC. We spent most of the day at the Museum of Modern Art. (Yes folks, Starry Night made me cry. Happens every time. Oh, Vincent.)

If you can, get there to see MoMA's current special exhibit, "Century of the Child." Wow. Amazing.

On our way out we popped into the MoMA store to find the books I've done for Duopress. I saw them literally the moment we walked through the front door. I would say that having books in the MoMA bookstore is a dream come true, if I had ever dreamed such a thing.
What a glorious day.

THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY! THAT IS SO GREAT! :o) What a wonderful thing to see your work in the MOMA!!!
I loved seeing Starry Night the time I visited there.

Thanks, Brett. It really is incredible to see so many of the paintings in my art history books not only under the same roof, but in the same room. The impressionists make my heart sing, to be sure.

Next time we'll spend the day at the Met. My family will face a big challenge, trying to drag me out of the Rembrandt room. There is divinity there, to be sure.

You are an awesome friend, thanks for the comment.
