I got the occasion to experience an unexpected side effect of the workshops I recently took.
We are spending the weekend a little north of Philadelphia, near Longwood gardens, and on a whim, we decided to visit the Brandywine Museum. There, I had the occasion to appreciate the works of N.C.Wyeth (among others) with a different eye than I used to in museums before.

Instead of paintings, I could see sharp/diffuse edges, value, colors, and so on I know it's not anything new if you had classical art education but I thought I would share that anyway.
