The Sistine Chapel, it's one of the hugest things in art and it was a pretty cool experience to be in there and to see the ceiling and the Last Judgment. If you just can't make it there in person right now, this is a pretty good alternative. This site won't give you the same experience as actually being there, but in some ways it might be better than being there. It was amazing to be there and to see it in person, and the room just filled with beauty but it was also filled with other tourists and cranky guards who were shushing the room periodically.

Alright, I haven't blogged forever, things have been crazy in my life and I just got back from an amazing trip to Italy where I was able to see more beautiful art than I could imagine. I was several times so excited that I was practically jumping up and down. I'll share some of the pictures from that when I get them loaded, in the mean time, I want to share this article. I've been able to see a lot of this painting and I've always loved it, I think it's really cool that it's at the Louvre right now. Also I'm a fan of the Florence Academy of Art, I have hopes to someday spend a little time there, and I've recently discovered their blog and I thought I'd share that too.
