Real Art

To make up for those Basquiat paintings I posted last week, here are a couple by the American impressionist Mary Cassatt (1844-1926). There weren't a lot women artists in those days, and she was probably the best known. (And, attention Beckie and Emilyanne, she was born in Pittsburgh .)

Mother and Child

I love it, Rob!

*happy sniff* That is truly beautiful.

*sigh*

I'd love to be able to paint something like the first painting, especially. There's an entire story in that picture.

I have no doubt that you could.

:shy: ::blushing furiously:: Oh my goodness! Thank you.
You have much more confidence about that than I do.


(The little one on Mama's lap reminds me of Caleb. )

Well let me just put on my pink glasses here so I can take a better look at these

Yeah, that's more like it.... beautiful paintings... much better than those other ones! lol

Very beautiful paintings, Rob. Thanks for sharing them!
