Reflection to Gauguin Exhibit (SAM)

After seeing the Gauguin exhibit at the SAM, I'm left with mixed feelings. As far as his work goes, the style he has doesn't particularly appeal to me. On the other hand, it's always overwhelming seeing a persona entire lifetime of work. Seeing walls of rooms lined with his work and seeing his life laid out before me, it's so overwhelming an leaves me in awe- I can't imagine ever creating that much work, let alone it all being in a gallery with so many people coming from far and wide to see it. Overall, I enjoyed the show, despite not being the biggest fan of some of his work.
