Breathe


Whistler's Nocturne in Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket


This is one of my favorite paintings EVER. Sometimes I like to close my eyes and picture that I jump into it and shrink down, Mary Poppins style, and just stand in the midst of the shadow and sparks and just tilt my face up and breathe. It is delightful. I wish that just ONCE I could actually dream that, just to have that reality, even while I'm sleeping. Pure awesome.
