What better way to start an art blog than with a photograph (top of page) of a Roman stone tile from the Pergamon Museum in Berlin. I had the privilege of visiting Berlin in 2009 with my family, and all I could say was, “wow!” The culture, the life, the history, and the vast variety in art woke something in me that will not go away. The more I explore the world of art, the more I need to know. Who knows where this exploration will go but let the journey begin.
