Tomorrow is the July 4 holiday and, after several long and rough weeks, I'm as excited for the mid-week holiday as a child. So I thought it was only fitting to post these images of the best floor in the American Museum of Natural History: the dinosaur floor! I mean every kid loves dinosaurs, right? I went to the museum with two other twenty somethings and we all were like children looking at the fossils, I believe we spent about 3 hours on this floor of alone! These photos are a small sample of what we saw.
Back to vacation pictures. One of the best adventures I had on the East Coast was my trip to the American Museum of Natural History, in New York City. It's full of interesting things, even if you're not a science nerd, and it's got a great mix of new exhibits and exhibits that look like they haven't changed since the 1950s or 60s. I took a lot of pictures while here (the place is huge!) so here is round one; the dioramas. I've always been drawn to dioramas. With my own artwork I hope to someday create environments, pieces and installations that are based on reality but are also an alternate. Dioramas do just that, they're installations that strive to be reality but can never fully achieve it.
