A Week In Pictures April 1st-7th 2012

I went into Wegmans to get these items to make cookies and cream milkshakes with the kids....

....and came out $100 lighter. How did a $15 trip turn into $100? I blame my chipmunks.

 

Theo reading in the laundry basket lol He is obsessed with geography

 

This skating thing is turning into a fun weekly family activity. :-)

 

Simon pointed this out to me at Target. I laughed but T-Pain is laughing all the way to the bank.

 

These robots invaded our house

 

 

 One of our daily smoothies- In my J Cole voice, "Can't get enough"

 

The chipmunks never let me drive by Petsmart without stopping to explore.

 

 

 

Women in Art

I visited the National Museum of Women in the Arts  yesterday. Here are some of my favorite pieces:



Les trois grâces (The Three Graces) by Niki de Saint Phalle is actually located right in front of the museum on New York Ave.  I love how this art celebrates the beauty of the female body.



Erase Discrimination

I took these pictures in the Guerrilla Girls exhibit. I didn't get the images I wanted because I wasn't even suppose to be taking pictures on that floor (bad mommy). Most of their work focused on the lack of minorities and women in major art shows and galleries.

Forgot to jot down the name of this artist. :-(  Does anyone know who painted this?

Amethyst Grove by Susan Swartz-Swartz is an environmentalist, so most of her work focuses on nature.

Saved the best for last....

Margo Humphrey's depiction of The Last Supper: The Last Bar-B-Que. Humphrey is one of my favorite printmakers.

There were so many beautiful and thought provoking pieces at this museum. $10 well spent!
