beauties in paint (with no stains on their shirt)

Some more things to see at the art museum. I am really itching to go back again. I think I will take my sketch book this time to capture some of my favorite areas. I can not draw people but I can still sketch my favorite corners of architecture and frames and furniture and other non-people things around the beautiful museum building.

Tell me if you like any of these paintings. I'd love to hear which is your favorite.

Again, I love that the fabrics look so real. The detail of the sheen of the fabric or the brocade trim or the lace...

Thank goodness this style went away!! I don't think I would do well wearing this style collar!! Would you?

My kids always tease me that I need a bib when I eat 'cuz I never fail to splash or drop something on my shirt. I would definitely not be able to eat or drink in this collar!! Could you begin to imagine the laundering these required? Maybe they were never laundered...that would be even worse!!
