Art Appreciation Fridays!


It’s Friday! Finally the end of a busy week…but still so much to do! I wanted to dedicate Fridays to blogging about Art Pieces that inspire me. Art Appreciation Fridays! In regards to art, I am a jack of all trades, but master of none. I know, so cliché! It’s breathtaking seeing an artist so dedicated to a particular craft. If anyone out there has artwork they’d like to share, I would gladly love to feature it :) 

At the moment, I am very interested in watercolor. I love how everything blends together, but still has distinction in their shapes.  This certain piece by Don Lavelle is gorgeous. 


























Lavelle, Don. Notre Dame. 2011. Watercolor. 


I am a self-professed Francophile, and this painting of Notre Dame embodies why. The subtle use of color. It has such a romantic feel. It definitely portrays architecture of a different time. Isn’t it beautiful how the color and definition build up as your eyes wander to the top of the cathedral? C'est vraiment magnifique!!
