Art for the soul
February 8, 2011
It pains me to think how long it has been since I was last in a museum (my honeymoon over a year ago, I think), so this past weekend I made a date with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The afternoon provided some much needed me time, where I just wandered from gallery to gallery. I could let the art history major, nerd in me wax on about each piece I saw, but I think I will just share some images of what inspired me.
