Chicago

I'm here in Chicago to look at art. The first stop is the Chicago Art Institute where they have a amll but very good collection of art. Their strength is in sculpture but they also have some very good Tibetan and Nepalese paintings. The second place of interest is the Field Museum where they have a very large collection of art, mostly Chinese Himalayan and Mongolian art, paintings, sculpture, book covers, and ritual objects.

First Post

Well, here we are again. Different venue but still here. If you know what I mean. This web blog is intended to be a venue to say exactly how I feel about a number of different topics especially about Buddhism and Himalayan art.
