Last bite out of the apple...

by Charlene

Today was my final day in NYC and I saved the best for last – a visit to MOMA (Museum of Modern Art).

On my way… a cool poster promoting NYC arts & culuture
MOMA on West 53rd Street…

Came across a few of Picasso’s works – amazing what a variety of styles he had and he was so brilliant in each of these.

Three different paintings depicting only some of the many styles Picasso had.

I also saw this original Red Room from Matisse – I remember when I was still in High School – we had to choose an artist’s style to copy and I chose this particular painting of his to do my own interpretation of my Blue Room.

The Red Room by Henri Matisse, 1908

Another favourite artist of mine is Mark Rothko – these oversized canvases – with it’s divine choice of colours…

Untitled (Orange & Yellow) by Mark Rothko, 1956

I’m inspired to paint one of these to liven up the bare wall in our Lounge…

    It certainly would brighten up your lounge just as it did ours in Knynsa...
