Hey Kim, the Joan of Arc was by Jules Bastien-Lepage. You can find a full page with a critique of it here. I have'nt had the chance to read it, it's lengthy and I'm lazy. Just kidding, just in a rush. ARC has 24 images of his work, with a good-sized version of "Joan of Arc", but thankfully you saw the original first becuase the one posted in ARC is overly saturated. Anyone in the New York area should stop in to look at this piece.

Funny thing about you mentioning that you did'nt see any W.B.'s, now that I remember, they were the pieces hanging directly across from "Joan of Arc". I remember you turning around, seeing them and walking on. I even said that Fred (from ARC) would have been all excited right about now, I did'nt stress his work as you did'nt look interested in them. I've never been impressed by them myself. What makes things worse is you have to step back a considerable distance to eliminate the glare on top of the paintings.

You should do a quick search on Munch's "Vampire", there are different versions floating around, including drawings, one may inspire you more than others.

By the way, it's ok that you tell everyone that the guy wearing the Bob Ross shirt is actually me.
