I did take the boys to the Tennessee State Museum on Tuesday and there was a good amount of wonderful paintings of historical figures so that was nice, but I want to see some really good "art". Like what you showcased here. You really do have a great museum there to visit. I'm glad you enjoy it so much.<br /><br />I'm a big fan of Mary Cassatt. Her paintings have always spoken to me, especially since I became a mom. =O)Michelle Stockard Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572227726980569386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-24837176604638006832013-03-27T20:24:16.866-05:002013-03-27T20:24:16.866-05:00I don't know what it is about Edward Hopper th...I don't know what it is about Edward Hopper that I enjoy so much but I don't know that I've ever seen anything of his that I didn't like.

Just so you know, your pictures of pictures aren't any better than mine... and it's very difficult to get a good shot of a painting! That's why museums hire professionals to do it.<br /><br />If you send me a postcard from the WAM, I'll send you one from the DAM. :)Heidenkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494625457587427781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-11961775472344622272013-03-26T19:10:16.847-05:002013-03-26T19:10:16.847-05:00Pictures are hard to take pictures of!

Oh and I would have gone just for the Cassatt and the Hopper! Loved some of the others you took too!
