Day 16 and 17!

Bear with me as I play a little catch up!  I'm on to days 16 and 17 - a song that makes me cry and a favorite piece of art, sculpture, etc.

Alrighty then....a song that  makes me cry is Letter To Me by Brad Paisley.  I'm not sure why it makes me cry, but I love getting all sentimental about growing up, the good, the bad, the things I wish I could take back - all of it.  Here is the video - if you haven't heard this song, have a listen!




Now, hmmmmm, a favorite piece of art would be.....























Naw, just kidding!! Seriously, here is a great piece of artwork that I really like:





















"The Scream" by Edvard Munch.  I don't know what it is about this painting, I get a mini shock every time I see it.  Every.  Single.  Time.  Weird, right?  It's kind of like why people watch horror movies.  You don't really want to get scared, but you kind of do.  That's what this painting does for me.

Cheers!

The Scream was painted as a response to the horrors of war. Incredible painting... Wasn't it stolen?
