I'm hoping to fit in Chagall at LACMA before the year ends (especially now that I was gifted with a membership from a friend.)

In a nutshell, this could be the year of Diebenkorn, Matisse and Van Gogh for me. When I decided to drive across the country, I knew that I wanted to make it a priority to see as many Van Gogh paintings across the way. Thanks to my Mom, my husband and my art friends, I was able to do so. I'm eager to see what 2018 will bring with art museums...
