Making new friends gets more difficult as we grow older.

Instagram Photo of The Week: Thanksgiving is Back!

You are advised to act fast and make it to The Met to take in Sargent: Portraits of Artists and Friends before it closes next Sunday! Here are a few of my favorite paintings from the show, along with background on what you’ll see!
