I know it's usually all Raleigh, all the time over here but I just wanted to share something today. This is my official all time favorite painting. It's by Joseph Turner (new fav artist) and it's called "Slave Ship". I rarely have a painting or piece of art takes my breath away, but when my teacher put this up on the projector I was smitten. Sure, it's sad. The slave owners are throwing over the dead and dying slaves. But the color, wow. And the texture... amazing. His other paintings are just as mystifying. Anyways, Raleigh has two bottom teeth now. Have a nice day.
