From Monet to Magritte

Today for my 17th birthday, I went see an exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art featuring Rene Magritte (and several other modern artists). It was so amazing!! It was wonderful to see so many masterpieces that I had only viewed in text books and to be introduced to many new artists throughout the couse of the exhibit.

"The Red Model"

and
"Le Domaine d'Arnheim"

My sister, father and I then walked throught the permanent collection, which included works by Monet, Sargent, Degas, and Cezanne. It nearly took my breath away! The people in the museum must have thought me to be a little strange because I would either be gasping in awe or smiling and clasping my hands with glee. :)
