The Davis Museum at Wellesley College has a gorgeous collection in a building spacious building where you can see between the various levels of galleries. They’re having an incredible exhibit of works by Carlo Dolci, a late Baroque painter whose work I know from his painting of David and Goliath at the MFA.

We visited the Margaret C. Ferguson Greenhouses at Wellesley College just to see something interesting in our own backyard. 

Working from home means I can take a long walk at lunch time. It’s 60 degrees in February, and Jamaica Pond’s ice is still melting

We took a walk and picked up some incredible pie at the Pie Bar in Florence, MA. It was late afternoon, so the sun was coming in the from the front window at a great angle.

Due to the awful weather, my parents gave us their tickets to see an Italian Baroque concert by the Handel and Haydn Society at the New England Conservatory’s gorgeous Jordan Hall. phenomenal concert!

We popped in to the Copley Society Gallery on Newbury Street for a lovely demo by very talented watercolor artist.
