They just keep getting harder and harder. This time we were supposed to paint a picture from he Palace of Versailles. Now this was the home of Louis VIII who was a huge believer in opulence. There isn't a square inch of space that isn't painted, embellished, or gold-leafed in some way. So figuring out what to paint was quite a challenge. We found pictures using a new online tool called Google Art Project. It's really cool, because you can stroll through famous museums virtually via their security camera systems. What will they think of next???!!!
