What if You Could?
A?painting that has always captivated me?is?Seurat’s Sunday Afternoon on La Grande Jatte.??I have?imagined becoming?part of it –?I love the colors and shapes, the lazy day, the mysterious monkey…plus,?I’d really like to see what I would look like comprised of thousands of dots.
So, I asked a few artists that I admire the following question:
What work of art would you like to walk into and experience?
Their answers are surprising, intriguing and fun!

My pick is?John Singer Sargent’s “Venetian Interior”.?

Sargent’s paintings always?draw me in to what seems to be a rich life.? He

What a great post! This was such a challenge to come up with just one painting. I could rambled on over my top five. Jennifer Carrasco I love you! I wasn’t bold enough to share my love for Bosch because I fear that people already think I’m weird. But I love ‘The Garden of Earthly Delights’ for the same reason that Jennifer states in this post. I was captivated by his work when I first discovered it at age 19. Nobody ever told me there was a world like that outside my sheltered farm life.

How wonderful all these choices are, and what a nice collection they make! I’d love to be a climber inside a rocky Clifford Still painting, or be swept off my feet in an avalanche of satin in “The Waltz” by Anders Zorn.
