    Rembrarnt and Degas are probably the two best painters in history has been, of course in my humble opinion, thanks for the blog.

    These guys seem timeless..When the world was simple and unsophisticated they managed to triumph and leave a lasting legacy.
    I often wonder how many modern day painters will break through??
