Got round to visiting the Colours of Impressionism: Masterpieces from the Musee d’Orsay at the Art Gallery of South Australia today. An amazing experience. Claude Monet’s La Pie one of many favourites.

Looks like a trip to Canberra next year. Love and Desire: Pre-Raphaelite Masterpieces from the Tate opens December 14 at the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra. Ends 28 April 2019.

The Lady of Shalott by John William Waterhouse will be one on show.

"Sunrise chasing away the night" by Mick Namarari Tjapaltjarri. 

There was a programme on BBC4 tonight about Aboriginal art and it featured this painting. It's sunrise over the outback seen from a long way away- the white dots are stars above the landscape, the landscape is shown in the coloured dots, the circle is a sacred feature, on the left is the dark night being chased away by the sunrise on the right.

There was a programme on BBC4 tonight about Aboriginal art and it featured this painting. It's sunrise over the outback seen from a long way away- the white dots are stars above the landscape, the landscape is shown in the coloured bits, the circle is a sacred feature, on the left is the dark night being chased away by the sunrise on the right. 

FTFY I think, got confused looking for the coloured dots. Having to watch the show now.

P.S. It's only a handful or so lifetimes ago that their lives and culture were disrupted forever.
