Well, American artist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lauraberger.com\/\">Laura Berger<\/a> did just that in Lima Peru, thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/thejaunt.net\/\">&#8220;The Jaunt&#8221;<\/a>! What is &#8220;The Jaunt&#8221; you ask? Listen to THIS:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;For each trip we send an artist on <a href=\"http:\/\/thejaunt.net\/trips\/\">a trip to anywhere in the world<\/a>, to a destination where they have never been before. Once arrived, the artist will soak up all of the local impressions and inspirations. From freshly brewed local coffee to small boutiques, neoclassical architecture, overcrowded tourist sights or whatever else falls in their way. During the trip the artists keep a travel blog and document the many impressions they come across. This way everyone will be kept up to date with the travels and adventures of the artists, allowing a degree of familiarity with their perspective. Each trip is unique, because each destination and artist is different.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What!? So fantastic. And, Laura &amp; Lima? Literally a perfect combination! Now normally the art is\u00a0bought, sight unseen, before the artist leaves\u00a0&#8211; an exciting adventure for everyone<em>\u00a0{the print sales fund the trip}<\/em>. But because Laura&#8217;s trip was in May, I can show you the results\u00a0today! So, each artist is supposed to come home from their travels and produce one limited edition print based on their experiences but, Laura loved it so much, she made TWO\u00a0<em>{both shown above}<\/em>.\u00a0She didn&#8217;t stop there though &#8211; she also painted six original paintings!\u00a0<strong>All of this work will\u00a0be shown, and for sale, as of tomorrow &#8211; Friday July 28th. If you&#8217;re in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3sixteen.com\/\">LA pop by 3sixteen from 5-11pm<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0The prints are currently\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/thejaunt.tictail.com\/\">available online right here<\/a>! <em>ps.
