The Private Lives of Artists
While eating breakfast this morning, I found this interesting photo feature on CNN. Ever wonder what Frida and Diego looked like at home? Or what Ansel Adams looked like as a young man? Well, check this cool article out here. I hope it inspires you to research artists and their fascinating lives. EXTRA CREDIT: Name the artist that named his daughter Maya (send the info to me via email).
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
