An Artistic Aside

Below is my new favorite painting. I've always loved Mary Cassett. This is a painting that we saw in a little gallery in the Memorial Student Center at TAMU when we went for a football game a few weeks ago. The game was really the most incredible football experience I've ever seen, but this painting just was the icing on the cake.

I love the image of the mother with the baby, looking out the window, perhaps longing to be outside, but knowing that nap time is near. Of course, the other side of me wonders how many times the baby peed on his mother while posing for the painting.
