Beach Landscape
Here are a few pictures of my beach camping trip a few weeks ago.
Lazy Afternoon
Here are some Instagrams of what I did on my day off:
Tried on my new clothing purchases, and planned some outfits for Paris. The lip color is Red Velvet – Loving it for fall! I want to plan outfits, take pictures of each outift, and then be able to reference the photos if I’m feeling uninspired with what to wear one day. I think it’s a splendid idea!
Renoir and Baudelaire
While preparing one of my final exams for my Art and Literature class (yes, I got to prepare the final at home!), I had to find links between pieces of art and literature. Here is a link that I found in this Renoir painting, and in a few lines of a Baudelaire poem. Just look at the painting, read each line, and it’s almost as if these lines are describing the scene directly! Pretty cool.
Art History: Rococo
Jean-Honoré Fragonard is one of my favorites, because he quite often paints scenes of love and restlessness. These two paintings look to me as if a secret love affair is unfolding behind the scenes, and the lovers’ hearts are beating a million times a second for one another. I don’t know about you, but falling hopelessly in love with a handsome young man sounds like something I’d thoroughly enjoy. Also, that dog looks like my Mom’s dog, and that is quite amusing to me.
