"Wolverhampton Art Gallery. Today. I go every week as a group I'm in meets there. I love looking at the paintings when I'm there and have spent a long time looking at one and still find new things occasionally (it's basically the size of a wall) " I like that, nice that it still holds a fascination for you. Some paintings are so insanely epic. I'd probably spend days finding crazy stuff in a Hieronymus Bosch painting and not even scratch the surface | |||

The one that I enjoyed was the William Morris Museum in Walthamstow - I like a bit of Arts and Crafts, and my lounge is decorated with William Morris wallpaper. I also took a friend to Salts Mill in Saltaireba couple of years ago, which we both enjoyed, too." The William Morris is one of my local ones. Nice wandering around on a quiet afternoon. | |||

I do know a few wonderful places in London to indulge in art and culinary delights thugh some have changed over the years as things do. But as said earlier the Wallace collection is one of my favourite and at certain times very peaceful for reflection.

Quirky museums and old churches are my go to, and the streets of London are literally an art gallery that is constantly changing. I was in Ireland at the beginning of January. Check out the cathedral in cork. It's a weird one. I do love Architecture of old buildings. Last art I saw must've been on the same trip in Dublin, I believe at trinity college in Dublin. The art & architecture is worth the trip. Dublin was on my to do list for this year but the price of hotels are astronomical apparently " If you go out of the city centre, everything is cheap. | |||

"Tate Britain just after Christmas For a particular exhibition or just a mooch about? " Just a mooch about. I hadn’t been before. Very interesting to follow the timeline ancient (ish) to modern (ish). | |||

"Never been to a art gallery or museum although I have some lovely pictures I'm just not a art lover but can appreciate a good painting." Sometimes it's just a nice big empty space to zone out in. Even the big London ones have eerily quiet moments. | |||

"The Louvre, I thought the Mona Lisa was overhyped " It's quite small and there are a couple of hundred people crowding around it. Rest of the museum is good though. | |||

"Wolverhampton Art Gallery. Today. I go every week as a group I'm in meets there. I love looking at the paintings when I'm there and have spent a long time looking at one and still find new things occasionally (it's basically the size of a wall) I like that, nice that it still holds a fascination for you. Some paintings are so insanely epic. I'd probably spend days finding crazy stuff in a Hieronymus Bosch painting and not even scratch the surface " I want to see the Peter Bruegel collection as his work is of the same school as Bosch. Bosch is more religious, whereas Bruegel is more secular. Without these two there would be no Lowry or Where's Wally/Stig and everything else in between. | |||
