Slow Burn
Today the weather was warm and fuzzy, hitting 20 degrees on the quicksilver. For the first time since arriving here, I felt overdressed.Yesterday I visited the Impressionist exhibition at the NGV International. The masterpieces appeared endlessly. The works of Renoir, Moreau, Toulouse-Lautrec, Monet, Cezanne... and of course, van Gogh. It was Starry Night over the Rhone and a work from his days at the hospital in Arles. Such exhibitions were hard to come back in Singapore. You are left gaping in awe.
There was the Man Ray showcase too. Next time then, I will be back to burn those images in my mind. One more time.
