\nI just got back from my two week trip to Europe. We visited Germany (D\u00fcsseldorf and Cologne), the Netherlands (Amsterdam) and Denmark (Aarhus, Copenahgen and M\u00f8ns Klint). We saw over a dozen museums and galleries, the best of which was probably the Louisiana Museum<\/a> north of Copenhagen which had a really inspiring Matisse show (more on his tree drawing later).
\nOn our last day we took a journey down to the southeast corner of Denmark to the island of M\u00f8n<\/a>. There we found the most spectacular landscapes of our trip in the 400 foot white chalk cliffs of M\u00f8ns Klint. A breathtaking end to our great trip.
\nIn addition to taking scads of pictures<\/a>, I tried to draw as much as possible, and I’ve created a collection of a few of the sketches to share<\/a>. Click on the above image to see them, or click here<\/a>.
\nI also have to recommend the sweeping epic of a novel, “Cloud Atlas”<\/a> by David Mitchell (recommended to me by fellow invisibleman PA). This was my travel book, and it delivered exactly what I was looking for on a good trip. It’s an epic that sweeps through time as well as distance. Be sure to check it out<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
