Photography

I love it when a photograph looks like an oil painting and you have to really stare at it to see it is a photo.

This is just such a rich tapestry.

I was reading once about how several of the Impressionist artists in France would go out painting together and paint paintings of the same scene. You know, imagine Monet and Matisse on a little country jaunt and both painting the same hay stack.

Occasionally, the lucky museum goer, will stumble upon a show where they have rounded up two of these paintings and you can see them together and it is always magic.

Diamond Dog... I look at this picture of yours and all I can think is you and Vincent Van Gogh went out together into the night to make art, but you stood under a maple tree and he was down a bit under one of those skinny Cyprus trees.

So beautiful.
