It was brutal, but I chopped, axed, hewed, whittled, and cut down my list of favorite paintings to 10. You have seen a few of them on my blog, and you will see some additions to those that may be topics for future posts. Enjoy, or scratch your head and say 'Why in the heck did she pick that one?' and please let me know if you have a favorite artist or painting that is not in my top 10! I would like to do a top 10 reader's choice post eventually!
Here they are, in no particular order (except for Starry Night which is my favorite).
Starry Night--Vincent Van Gogh
Rouen Cathedral--Claude Monet
Nightwatch--Rembrandt van Rijn
Guernica--Pablo Picasso
The Persistence of Memory--Salvador Dali
Raft of the Medusa--Theodore Gericault
Whose Meat--Charley Russell
Green Stripe, Madame Matisse--Henri Matisse
Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte--Georges Seurat
The Sistine Chapel--Michelangelo Buonarroti
There you have it. After thinking it over, I can't say I have a single change I would want to make. Again, let me know what your favorite artist/painting is so I can do a top 10 reader's choice!
