you should have been there

My dad and I went to the de Young Museum in San Francisco, where Post-Impressionist pieces from the Musee d'Orsay in Paris are visiting. Being in the same room with these paintings was indescribable. So I'll just show you the best of what I saw. Six inches in front of my face.





I think I stood in front of this painting for a solid ten minutes.








I never understood either of these paintings until I saw them in real life. And then when I finally did they blew me away.








And last but not least, my most favorite painting of all time.
My life is now complete.
