i loved this image .. its a curious little girl and it seems like my personal demeanor being an observer .. espcially staring at lovers like she just doesnt understand lol .. i went down to philly yesterday .. 3 hour drive but i finally DIDNT have to drive so i was able to enjoy myself .. tooks many pics ..

on the way there ..















steve and this kept me entertained



entering the city





the sun jizzed







then we went to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts School and Museum .. Morris Gallery ..

listening to music art in Malcolm McLaren's exhibit Shallow



nations oldest art museum ..







i was trying to make a morose face with the painting lol .. i was impressed with it though .. the actress portrait .. by Thomas Eakins .. it had very honest and psychological vibes .. a bit sad ..

I love that Rockwell picture. It really captures the essence of the moment...and speaking of capturing the essence...that last painting is amazing. So life like! I've never been to Pennyslvania before, how was it? Looks very old and Goth-esque. What are the weed laws like out there? I get nervous smoking weed anywhere but California! ha.

i consider myself a voyuer. there's so much interesting stuff to see.

it's nice to go somewhere and not have to drive yourself.

i'm usually the one behind the wheel so i don't get that thrill very often.
