Art Museum with Nathaniel

Saturday was a crazy busy day with only a few hours at home from 7:15am to 9:00pm. One thing we did was visit the Norton Simon Museum with the scouts for their art merit badge.
Nathaniel selected some of his favorite works of art and we took pictures with my phone (not great photography.)
This is Degas' sculpture of the ballerina.
Nathaniel in front of a Van Gogh tree painting. And Nathaniel painted the dinosaur on his tshirt in 1st grade.
Nathaniel tends to like still life. He wished he had a sketch pad and pencil with him. He wondered if the museum provided them because he saw so many people sketching. He is fun to go to a museum with because he talks about why he does or doesn't like something.
