Riddle: What happens when you put two artists in an art museum?

Answer: You not only spend over four and a half hours in the museum but you also look at, discuss, and create art in the process.
The art museum is the amusement park of artists and yesterday I went to one of my favorite local amusement parks in San Francisco, with my artist friend Justin Buellthe Museum of Modern Art (better known as the SF MoMA). I think I have finally found my art viewing soulmate in California. We had way too much fun and it was wholesome geeky art goodness. These are the images that document our adventure:

Ten, A - Richard Tuttle

Untitled - Barry McGee

Becoming a Renaissance man...woman

No, I'm not quite a draughtsman or much of a scientist for that matter (unless you call my crazy food experiments in the kitchen a scientific inquiry) but I am taking a drawing course to improve my skills. Reason? Well, I think that learning to see the difference in value (the lightness or darkness of color) is a good skill to have in photography.
I may never be as great as Da Vinci or Picasso but it's fun to try anyway.







I need to travel!
