Marie, reminiscing:
Some years ago we visited the Louvreβ¦I was really delighted. It was a dream come true for the wannabe painter in me. As a kid, Iβve always admired the works of great artists as Monet and Van Goghβ¦then of course I only get to see their works on books and encyclopedias.
My favorites later on included Picasso, DΓΌrer and Klimt; this time Iβm able to see some of their works up close. Yet, thereβs still so much more to explore.
Iβve often mentioned my interest in the arts on my other blogs. I enjoy interviewing artists, interpreting their work and hearing their own interpretation too β something I havenβt done for a long time nowβ¦and visiting the Louvre wouldnβt make this possible. π So there we were able to enjoy the silence and the beautiful colors of the Louvre even for a few hours. Iβd definitely love to go back!

Fast forward to 2016, I went to visit the Louvre but not with the wife but with a visiting friend.
You definitely have an eye for beauty!

One painting Iβd really love to see if ever I get to visit the Louvre is the Mona Lisa.
