Featured Artist

Tim Burton at MOMA until April 2010

My daughters and I went to see this amazing collection of works at MOMA over the weekend.
The online representation is good but nothing beats seeing it all in person. If you have the opportunity to see this show don't miss it. 
This is truly a case of quality and quantity in one location. Although I do not know much about his personal biography I suspect that somewhere along the way and art teacher told him to continue using this as a tool to express himself. All it takes is one voice of encouragement. (I am sure there were many who opposed his particular form of expression.)
