Adventures in the City of Brotherly Love

Dear Readers,
 Well, yesterday I had an art adventure.  Husband and I went to Philadelphia for the day!  We tried cheese steaks, posed in front of the Rocky statue, and went to Independence Hall.

                                                                            (teehee)

 But the best part(for me) was going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and seeing the Vincent Van Gogh exhibit they have right now.  It was amazing!  There were so many paintings that I had never gotten to see before, and a few I've loved for a while.

Husband's favorite painting was Van Gogh's Almond Blossom-

Mine was a lesser-known picture called Garden of Saint-Paul Hospital

 I found this exhibit very inspiring, since it was all about Van Gogh's paintings of nature.
It made me want to go out and draw more!


 As I promised two days ago, I have been doing some sketching outside. 
Here is a drawing I did in my lovely in-laws backyard of their beautiful cherry tree:

And a final picture of a flower I drew in downtown Annapolis:

I look forward to more sketching adventures- thanks for sharing them with me!
