Dominique Appia


in 8th grade i was sitting in my drama class listening to my crazy teacher
go on about something to do with "ying and yang."
i don't entirely remember how i saw it, but i do remember that when i did
i was absolutely amazed.
keep in mind that at the time i'm 13 years old, the only thing that usually
catches my attention is boys and shopping..
but i LOVED this painting.
after class my teacher told me the painter is Dominique Appia, and
the name of the painting is "Entre Les Trous De La Memoire"


so of course, i went home and told my mom all about what i found.
i googled it, found it on allposters.com, and she ordered the poster for me :)

seriously, you're wondering why i'm telling you about this aren't you?
well, i hadnt thought about this painting in SUCH a long time.
i couldn't even remember the name of the painter.
and i forgot my poster at my moms house in oregon.
but last night i was just laying in bed and out of NO WHERE,
DOMINIQUE APPIA pops into my head.
i made a little note on my phone so that i would remember to look him up
in the morning.
turns out, there are many AMAZING paintings that he does.
all of which have to do with dreams and the imagination.

seriously, go check out the website right here.
