I recently visited the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, PA. It was a dream come true to see all the great masterpieces in the Barnes collection, but I felt that twinge of guilt giving my money to the very people who stole the paintings... and big business it is! It was a thrill to see the paintings and I stayed for hours. These are (for me) the highlights of the works. Though I am partial to Matisse and the Fauves, Post-Impressionism and Picasso... I loved the entire collection. Watch "The Art of the Steal" to understand the story behind the paintings.
I see a lot of your art in many of these paintings. The different styles are reflected in a lot of ur works but a slightly different effect in each. Your colors are more vivid then most of the masters
