Where Can I See Some Great Art?
Dec 10, 2016
It is so inspirational to get out to a world class museum and see amazing artworks in person. Here I am with a giant tapestry of, and by, my favorite artist, Chuck Close! Seeing a piece of artwork for yourself and being able to get up close to really be able to view the piece is absolutely essential for an artist to do. There is an energy and excitement that you will never get by just looking at a work in a book or online. Here is a list of some of the best museums to visit in the United States when you get the chance.
