I’ve been meaning to mention the wonderful children’s books written by Peggy Stone, the stories are about a runaway husky who is found in New York, and loves artworks. You can buy them here.

If you need help researching painters’ time life, their periods and location they had travelled to, “eVasari” can help you with it (however for some reason I’m not able to find Van Gogh on it…) eVasari

Even though I do not agree with Collin when he talks about Turner; I believe Constable’s work was much more “British-like,” at that time, than Tuner’s, perhaps that was the reason it took him so long to get accepted into the academy; he was giving them what they already have seen, just in an “unfinished” version. – (and when I say that I do not want to diminish his work in any way, just trying to describe what may have been the academy’s view on it) – But I do enjoy many of the points Mr.Wiggins brings up in the video, it helped me to understand and appreciate Constable’s artwork even more. Hope you guys enjoy it as well!

As an English as a second language speaker I can guarantee reading children’s books and studying art is one of the fastest and best way to learn English and improve your vocabulary.

For the first time in half a century, visitors to the world’s largest cultural institution, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will have to pay a mandatory admission fee of $25 if they do not live in New York State under a new policy that begins March 1, the museum announced on Thursday. (New York Times reported)
Daniel H. Weiss, Met’s new CEO, says in this interview that the “increase” of Met’s entry fees is due to the decrease of contributors and the failure of “pay-as-you-wish” policy: Met Museum President Daniel Weiss Answers Questions About the New Admissions Policy
Even though I like the novelty of this honorable policy, I do not think it is very practical nowadays, specially for the arts and cultural institutions; which might differ in the next 10 to 15 years. I also suspect that the questionable financial management of the last few years also influenced his decision. Let’s hope this change can come as a big help for our so loved national treasure museum.

Georgina Adam’s predictions for 2018 art market is very optimistic, she believes the sale of the Salvator Mundi had a significant effect in Old Masters’s and also in the over all marketplace: What will 2018 hold for the art market?
I also thought was funny the fact that she mentioned Martin Kemp’s noticeable increase of submissions after the Last Da Vinci’s big sale, he must be thrilled…
