Sister Trip - Cleveland Art


Romping Cherubs.

Francois Boucher, 1940's
I love this French painting of the fat little cherubs.

The Cleveland Art Museum has an interactive display.  It's really cool.
You can see what is in the museum.  Touch the picture and it enlarges to tell you about the piece.

Then you go find it.

You can select categories.  I selected Mother.

All items with Mother popped up on the screen, including some strange stuff.

I love paintings with a Mother and Child.



Painting titled "A Woman's Work", 1912 by John Sloan.
Don't you love the crisp white laundry?

I took these last two picture just for the color.  
Perfect shades of muted Pink and Blue.

I wish I'd had my Floss Color Chart with me!
