An art gallery?🖼 These modern cruise ships definitely have something for everyone!
And the quality of the artistry is commendable.
My favorite is the textured palette knife painting by Slava Ilyayev. Using a palette knife to oil paint is like putting frosting on a cake, except Slava clearly doesn't care if it's all smoothed out. The visual effect is remarkable.

It's great having you back on land, Denise!💕💫

Hi, Nina!!! An art gallery! Who knew, right? Those bigger cruise ships are just like little cities... especially now with the viruses running rampant, no? It makes one happy to be on land.

The Ilyayev is one of my favorites too. I had bought one of his quite a few years ago, so I was very interested to see how much he auctioned off for. That is just his way of painting, interestingly. He always paints with a palette knife. And yes!! That is a great analogy, the frosting on a cake. :) Exactly. Like putting it on for a toddler. All frosting and no cake to speak of. The visual is what really caught my eye, to begin with. Many, to be honest. I was surprised by how many people were fawning over it.

I can never thank you enough for the support and #steemitlove that you send my way. Thank you, truly and thank you for taking the time to give kind and generous comments, wherever you go, whatever you do. And dropping the link here!!! Much appreciated!

#MarketFriday loves you!

Thank you for the generous tip! @dswigle

Your timing for the last set of cruises was impeccable in light of the coronavirus. Whew!
I enjoy living vicariously through photographs and tales from your amazing travels. You probably remember my last major vacation was to St. Martin last April and my suitcase is calling me to go on an adventure. Visiting my daughter in Dallas and son in college has filled the void. As of now, my family isn't in a hurry to fly anywhere in light of the virus.

Happy Friday, Denise!
