pickArtist Claire has been blackballed by the art world and is thus working creating reproductions of famous paintings for a website. Then someone brings her a painting from the Gardner Museum heist but she believes it‘s a forgery. For whatever reason I dragged my feet to pick up this book and it turns out I loved it! The story is great and the descriptions of the artistic process are fascinating. #ReadYourEbooks
April 5 #SpringSkies InvolvesArt I thought I would show off some of my art I've done lately. This is called Reversed Canvas Art. You paint on the back of the wooden canvas and make it like 3D by adding real pieces that match what you painted. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
A very interesting story of artists Mary Cassatt, Edgar Degas, Manet, and their contemporaries.
I‘m reading the backlists of authors for

pickInteresting story based on the Gardner museum art heist!
We recently moved from California to Kalamazoo Michigan and culled books from our library we read but treasured. On a cross country move you have to decide what you really need so not only books but many belongings stayed behind. We went from 6 bookcases to 3 and kept books either my husband or I have not read, and we did keep some books that are treasured, and those of favorite authors that will be reread..or not.
pickI have been coming home with arm-loads of books from our wonderful library in Kalamazoo, however decided if I don't start reading books from our own library they may never get read. I chose the book "The Art Forger" which has been on our shelves, seems like forever, finally getting around to reading it. So far I am liking the book very much. Will let you know if I change my mind by the end of the book.??
Finished and liked it.
