Ok, I think I gave y’all a toughie for the very first Guess the Artist (at the Detroit Institute of Arts) last week. So I’m making it a little easier this week. Do you have any idea what artist has such a style? I can tell you (as you can see), their style is definitely different. High five to the Detroit Institute of Arts for having a stunning (and extremely large!) collection of the most magnificent paintings. It’s amazing to watch people looking at the paintings. Each deep in thought – each painting touches us differently. All are fabulous! Next Monday, a new chance to guess!

Read on for this week’s answer:
