If you are in the Central Florida area or passing through in the next few weeks, I highly recommend visiting the Winifred Johnson Clive exhibit at the Orlando Museum of Art. This exhibition really caught me by surprise! I was not aware of this artist before seeing the show, but I was truly taken with […]
Read more "Winifred Johnson Clive: An Artist at Home and Abroad"A few weeks ago I visited the Polk Museum of Art in Lakeland, FL to view the exhibition Degas: The Private Impressionist. I then wrote about it for ArtScene Press. Here is a brief excerpt of that article… The preliminary sketches and studies in this exhibit exemplify Degas’ masterful draftsmanship, and some drawings could stand as […]

If you haven’t seen any blog posts as of late, know that I spent a bit of time away from the blog, wandering around the Windy City. This was my second visit in less than a year and I can assure you… Chicago is a city FULL of ART! […]

Read more "Robert Indiana: A Sculpture Retrospective"Last week I visited the Tampa Museum of Art for the first time to experience the “Love is Calling” installation created by Yayoi Kusama. There is no additional fee to enter this separate installation, but reservations are required as only a small number of guests may enter at one time. Even if you have seen […]
Read more "Love is Calling"When I travel, I try to keep an open mind about the art institutions located in the cities I visit. When you visit a large metropolitan area, like Chicago or Boston, you don’t have to worry so much about the quality (or in those cases, the sheer magnitude) of the city’s art institutions.
