The FaHCSIA bus driver gave me his ticket to the last day of the Masters In Paris Exhibiton at the National Gallery of Australia. I have been 3 times already. This is the last day of the exibition in Australia and the gallery has been open for 36 hours straight to process all the tickets. I popped in at 6:15am thinking Id stand in front of Stary Night the whole time, but I asked if I could get a headset that had an audio guide and they said yes. It was ok, rather boring full of facts and figures and then I decided to go back and get the kids version of the tour. Im glad I did because it was so upbeat and whimsical. I did however learn 2 major lessons, first, when you paint a painting you should consider what the room will be like where it will finally rest or what it is used for, ie bedroom = softer colours and second, when you paint two contrasting colours of dots together the brain gets confused and makes its own colour up. The kids tour was more about the heart and thats what the expressionist were on about. Go figure.... I spent about 1/2hour in the kids activity room where I shot these piccys. It was charming. Oh, and the eye candy wasnt bad either.

You have always been, and still are, basically a kid at heart. This is what makes your view on life so refreshing - and you so loveable/hugable.
