Sunday in the Park With George: An Analysis “White. A blank page or canvas. His favorite. So many possibilities.” Sunday in the Park with George, a musical by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine, is a very curious musical indeed.

A Sunday on La Grande Jatte: A Sunday Today was a beautiful day for a drive to Chicago. My purpose would be to visit my first art museum, The Art Institute of Chicago. The Art Institute of Chicago is a must visit. I was tasked to choose a piece of art, study the piece, and then write about this piece. It was a very difficult task, to choose just one single piece. The Art Institute is the home to an enormous amount of art work, from paintings to pottery, from Impressionism to Contemporary, from
