Fine Art Friday
I liked the last experiment (different views of anemones) so much that I've decided to do it again for this week's edition of Fine Art Friday. With February looming, romance is in the air. So, I decided to put "Kiss" in the search box at art.com. Well, it is interesting, to say the least. And I wouldn't really advise it, unless you want to search through about a billion pictures of the band KISS (which I didn't), and a lot of, well, shall we say, inappropriate pictures with that in the title. Enough said.
So here are today's entries, all with the theme "kiss."
First, there was the picture I expected to pop up first, and sure enough it did:
Next, a beautiful sculpture of a kiss:
Less traditional? Maybe you'll like this one better:
Then there's probably the most photographed kiss in the world (and yes, I do think photography can be fine art!):
Next we have the most infamous kiss of all time:
Following, we have the very romantic version:
One of my favorite kissers:
If all of the above has been too literal an interpretation of kisses, then here's something more abstract:
And finally (finally!), the most famous movie kiss of all time!
Smooch from the Mamas!

What a beautiful, inspiring and fun post!
Love all the interpretations of "the kiss."
But they don't hold a candle to the real thing, of course.

Thank you, Linda! And I definitely agree about the real thing!
