I was at the Tate Museum today in London and i was just walking around and i stood at this one painting by a Cuban artist named Wilfred Lam and all of a sudden, like in the movies, this tall thin man with a large nose walks up to me and asks,
"so what do you think about this one?" just like in the movies.
i was so caught off guard that i said " it's pretty cool i guess."
and then i was embarrassed and i could feel my face turning red because, what a teenaged unintelligent thing to say!!
so i continued on, commenting on the contrast and how i liked the way it wasn't as cluttered as some of the other paintings.. and how i liked the fuzziness of the lines, that they weren't so distinct..
and he just nodded his head and agreed and told me his opinion as well...
"so where are you from?" i asked. "Belgium." "oh really? that's sweet."
"where are you from?" "Canada."
"oh thats quite far away." he said.
"Yup. I leave tomorrow."
"Oh so you're just visiting as many museums as you can then?" he asked.
"Yeah pretty much..
i actually went to Shakespeare's The Globe earlier today."
"Oh that's nice."
and that's all. it was a pretty peak moment i have to say.
