Tim Burton is one of my favorite people in the whole world.
On October 9, 2011 I was finally able to visit his exhibit I had been dying to see for months! The exhibit was held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The drive was such a pain, Will and I got a little turned around thanks to the vague directions we got. Thanks a lot Google Maps! My boyfriend is such a trooper for driving us around all over the place!
When we reserved our tickets we had to pick a specific time to be able to enter the exhibit. We decided on noon and were a little nervous that they wouldn't let us in since we were a few minutes late. Lucky for us, they weren't as strict with the time as they had made it out to seem. They were still checking tickets and hadn't let the line in yet.
The exhibit was as amazing as I had pictured it! They had some of Tim Burton's personal sketches, personal notes and write ups of his movies and models of his characters as well as movie costumes. I loved every bit of art work! Will and I had a wonderful time :)

Unfortunately, they told everyone right away that pictures were not allowed to be taken inside the exhibit. There were some rebels in there who did it anyway, but I was too paranoid since the employees were watching everyone like hawks and yelling at the people they caught breaking the rules. Luckily though, I was able to hunt down pictures of some of the artwork so I could give you all a little taste of the awesomeness I was able to experience. Enjoy!

The awesome entrance to the exhibit.
Thank you, Tim Burton, for allowing your incredible art and personal collection to be displayed for the public to see! It was such a great experience!
