I love to go to art museums! Some of my favorite memories are of rainy days spent indoors in the company of Monet and Chagall. Then, naturally, there is the obligatory cup of tea and slice of cake in the peaceful museum café and the final exit through the gift shop. Even the Vatican Museum has one, and it’s a doozy! The odd art appreciation and “hands on” classes in college encouraged my desire to not only observe artworks created by the masters, but to have a go at it myself
