Today while Paul solves the problems of the RV dealers I ventured into Houston to see an exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, MfaH of David Hockney – Van Gogh: The joy of Nature. I had an entry ticket for 11 am as they are being COVID safe even here and I was a bit early so I was able to wander around the museum district a bit finding a very interesting sculpture garden.

Just fun!
Just weird!!!
It was a beautiful museum and the exhibit was fascinating. Only a few of Van Gogh’s works but a couple that I had seen in Amsterdam and a few I knew nothing about. David Hockney does some pretty cool stuff also.
These are created with an Ipad! Not my Ipad!!! and really big.
He did a lot of watercolor painting, sketching and of course oil. Not Van Gogh but creative none the less.
The rest of the museum had a nice variety of art works.
This is based on a fairy tale and was very scary to me!
And I’ll save the best (worse of last) I am always drawn to the contemporary art mostly because it does make you think but sometimes it is just too strange! The artist was making a statement but it just seems strange. I read the title and description and I’m not seeing it.

I guess that is why it’s displayed in a museum exhibit and I have yet to be displayed.
