Newlyweds' Present

4th time painting. Acrylic on Bristol & framed for newlyweds.

I MUST see the Tutankhamen Exhibition in NYC!!!!

I have always loved history & learning about different cultures but one thing I've always been a fan of since 2nd grade was Egyptian history. From the age of 8 I knew I wanted to be an archaelogist even tricking my teacher when I put a chicken bone in a tic- tac container & calling it a dinosaur's bone I found on my backyard lol! Though my dinosaur interest died off, I still admire Egypt to this day.
So when I found out that Tutankhamen was coming to NYC for the second time since the 70's, I just knew that I HAD TO GO. It will run until Jan 2, 2011 & will go towards the construction of The Great Egyptian Museum to be built near the pyramids at Giza. Click the link for more information.

* The picture above is a drawing of Tutankhamen & his wife I made in '03 or '04 based on Tutankhamen's golden throne.
