An Art Day

There are some days I just have to set aside for looking at art. I need to just go and take a few hours to walk through some exhibitions. Doing this has a soothing effect on me. I usually have creative ideas after. Sometimes there are books or catalogs I just have to purchase as well.

Today I went to see a show at the Newcomb Art Gallery. The current exhibit concludes this month. It is a collection of paintings, drawings and prints on paper borrowed from private collections from across the city. Some artist names I knew, while others I did not. At any rate I made today an “art day”. I need to do this more often.
