the national gallery in london is about to finish it's looooong revamp. i have to say that i am really excited. although the new look is unveiled this sunday i probably won't get a chance to get there until next wednesday. i can't wait.
the gallery is a spectacular repository of art. there is something special about walking around the galleries looking at the art on display. not only the art but the environment fills you with a feeling of peace and wonderment. it is a place to contemplate and view artistic beauty.
it is one of my favourite galleries in london.
the others being the tate modern, the whitechapel and the heyward gallery.
expect to hear more about my travels in the art world in the weeks to come.
but fear not i am part of the "i-don't-know-much-about-art-but-i-know-what-i-like" school of thought.

for the really big shows over here it is the same - matisse picasso was chocker for most of it's run and expensive, so was hopper.
but the simple pleasure of walking around the national gallery and national portrait gallery can't be beat.
