    Nice wooden cabin with solid roof & door. Amazing sculptures too. You must definitely see my last post 'Wonders in Wood". http://www.sankriti.blogspot.com/2011/12/wonders-in-wood.html

    Beautiful pictures of wood - from the title I was expecting expected a ramble through the forest, but I'm a fan of this kind of wood too. As before, your art museum is exceptional!

    I love that last sculpture! And, you didn't get 'busted' taking photos in a museum? Lucky you!
    I hope you have a Wonderful Merry Happy Christmas Holiday!

    Love the look and feel of wood. Great shots in the museum. Wondered about the papers? on the floor in the corner. An art exhibit or what? Just curious.

    all things being equal, I prefer wood to almost anything - linoleum, carpeting...

    Thanks to everyone for visiting.

    To answer questions, the museum allows photographs of the permanent collection as long as you don't use flash. The only time you can't take photos is when it's a temporary exhibit.

    To answer a question about the folded paper, they are an exhibit but I've forgotten the info about them, next time I'll photograph the tag with the info so I'll remember.
