I was not into painting before. I even know nothing about paintings and the painters (except the famous Monalisa by Leonardo Da Vinci). But when I went to Tate Modern Museum in London last week, I found myself a bit interested in paintings, even though I can’t paint at all. haha. It’s the part of guessing the meaning behind the paintings and seeing the combination of colours in it that excite me. I know most of the time I can’t make an exact guess. haha. But it’s just exciting, indeed. And most of all, I like seeing the colours in paintings.

If I were asked about who is my most favourite, I think i’d go for Van Gogh. He is originally Dutch, but spend some of his lifetime working in Paris, France. I love his paintings though I haven’t seen all the collections. But for sure, the colours of his paintings are so beautiful. I’d really love to see all of his collections that I’m after the Van Gogh’s Exhibition in Royal Academy of Arts, London on my next visit to London (still a month to go. ah!). maybe I need to study about his paintings and biography before my visit. very keen on it!

Oh well, his masterpieces are Sunflowers, Starry Night, Irises and The Potato Eaters.
