The Winged Nike! I finally saw her and she's gorgeous. In comparison to all of the highly polished sculptures and finely detailed paintings, nothing in the Louvre was as striking as the Winged Victory of Samothrace. Raft of Medusa came really close, but there's just something so perfect about the Winged Nike, in all of her unfinished expression. I really wanted to capture the different subtle colors radiating off her stone surface. For the parents and friends back home, take a second look at the whites, beiges, and blacks around you every day and see the hidden colors in them. You'll be pleasantly surprised at how much you are missing.
Love,
Lane Ngo

I'm really jealous. That is one of my favorite sculptures!
You should have come to Lacoste, Steven. What were you thinking? tsk tsk! ;)
