Christina’s World is one of my favorite paintings. The story behind it is fascinating.

One of my favorites too. What is the story? I’m curious now.

“Andy put me where he knew I wanted to be. Now that I can't be there anymore, all I do is think of that picture and I'm there.”

I know right?!?

Read somewhere about the girl (an actual person he based the painting on) crawling on the ground because she couldn't walk (memory escapes me at the moment as to why) but she insisted on doing it without anyone's help. I thought it was fascinating.
