they allow you to take pictures (non-flash) in the permanent exhibits, but not in the temporary. since i spent most of my time in the temporary exhibits, i didn't get a lot of art pictures.
Van Gogh!!!!!!!!! I knew it. I LOVE HIM!!!!!! I would like to have one of his painting in my office. No, I've never been to the Getty Museum, where is it?
This picture seems to be jumping right off the computer screen at me. And my monitor isn't even all that hot. Literally looks 3-D. The brush strokes seem to have authentic texture.

I'll have to go now dig out some more sun-dappled irises from last spring.
(I love this one how dark and heavy it is; was this one painted toward the latter end of his life I wonder?)
