arts

Poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

— John Keating

Welcome to this little “e-museum” — a personal gallery of snapshots featuring artistic wonders and cultural relics!

The “exhibits” here range from paintings and ceramics to sculptures and beyond — basically, anything that blew my mind during visits to museums. You might also stumble upon some of my own photography, when I felt inspired (or just lucky with the lighting 😎).

If you’re also a fellow art & history enthusiast, I’d be thrilled to hear about what’s captivated you too — feel free to share!
