“Art always used to involve spirit. Painters painted spirit. They painted by commission things to go into churches, and that was painting spirit. Or they would paint people of wealth, and they would try to show how they had power, and again, this is sort of spirit.” PeopleTryingArtShowsUsedSpiritChurchWealthPaintingPaintPainter Author:Brian Froud

“I did make several trips to the very wonderful [Georgia] O'Keeffe museum. Besides the art (my favorite paintings are from her Pelvis series) my favorite thing about the museum is the architecture. I love how enormously tall the doors are - it is like going into a church. There is also something home-like about the layout of the museum. I wish I could live there!” ArtHomeWishChurchWonderfulDoorsPaintingSeriesMy FavoriteArchitectureTallMuseumsGeorgiaFavorites ThingsLayoutGeorgia O Keeffe Author:Liza Campbell
