Painting with a Different Stroke

With me, I have always been more of a crafty person trying to figure out ways to D.I.Y. something other people would just buy in the store.

Entering the unassuming museum and knowing I am not the biggest fan of Fernando Botero, I was immediately humbled by his impressive collection of works and personal favorites.
