New Britain Museum of American Art

 The day after Valentine's Day was taken up with an after hours party at the New Britain Museum of American Art. The evening was set up with free wine; beer and snack foods with the ticket purchase.  They had two DJ's; a belly dancer; palm reader (didn't show) and rooms full of unusual, artistic, fun loving people. I thoroughly enjoyed my evening. 

 The art was fabulous and intriguing, causing me to think about the meaning; appreciate the talent and envy the ability of the various artists. (yeah, I have envy in my soul)

 This particular display was made entirely of plastic cups! It consumed the major portion of one wall and   trailed up another wall on to other displays on the second floor.

 This piece was hanging from the central ceiling area.

 Unfortunately this is the best shot I could get of the belly dancer. Yeah...they had a belly dancer! I just couldn't get around all the men to get a better shot. 

 The awesome downstairs DJ....my favorite of the evening. Danced all night downstairs because of the techno music he was pumping out!

 This was my very best favorite piece of art. Awesome! I'd love to meet the artist and pick his brain.

 Something wholesome and calming about this painting. 

 Lovely work. 

Dark and inspiring this one caught my eye immediately. It's one of those paintings I'd love to step into and explore for awhile.
