Sometimes it is necessary to take a break from painting and go out and enjoy some fabulous art. I was lucky enough to tag along on my hubby's work trip to London last week. We spent our first 2 days in relaxing Bath, UK. Then it was full on art galleries for 3 days in London. I managed to get to the Mall Galleries, the Royal Academy of Art, the National Gallery, the Portrait Gallery and the Tate Modern. I think my step count on the ol' fit bit was over 22000 steps most days. Ah... but it was artsy heaven. Below are some pics and captions of the trip.

This was a painting by Van Gogh I had never seen before, but loved the colours and movement |
