Still Life with a Lobster by Jan Davidz de Heem
I like this assortment of objects. The bright red lobster in the center is striking. This is also from the Toledo Museum of Art.
Dancer and Gazelles by Paul Manship
This is at the Toledo Museum of Art. I hope I get to go back someday soon.
Stag at Sharkey’s by George Bellows
This painting is listed as a Must See at the Cleveland Museum of Art. I don’t like the subject matter, but I can respect the artistry. And I can respect the fact that George Bellows is a fellow Ohioan. He … Continue reading

The Country Gallants by John George Brown
I bought a poster of this when I was at the Toledo Music of Art. I love the idyllic view of nature and the young children.

The Comtesse de Ceres by Elisabeth-Louise Vigee Le Brun
My mom took an art history class. She said this artist is really important. This painting is at the Toledo Museum of Art.
