Me and Monet at The Legion of Honor

Wonderful show at the San Francisco Legion of Honor-Monet: The Early Years. I would have liked to paint sketches of some of the art but of course only pencils are allowed in the galleries, so sketching it was (and painting later). I find that drawing my favorite paintings in a museum really helps me understand and enjoy the painting better. And of course there is also an almost unlimited procession of people to sketch while they looked at the art. — Cathy McAuliffe
