Finally Sunny and Bright

Now I'm sitting here with a bowl of cereal in my hand to write about the amazing day I had on Wednesday.

My boyfriend came to spend couple of days at my house as we live quiet far from each other( he lives in up north of London and I'm in down south London, Kingston)! So as we are both a massive fan of art we decided to spend this Wednesday, which is my only day off, in national portrait gallery.

It was a beautiful and sunny day and surprisingly quiet warm for the beginning of march, or as my dearest Charles Dickens wrote : " It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light and winter in shade."

So I decided to take photos in front of my house before leaving because well it was the first time wearing my new dungarees and I felt really summery and nice.
It was my first time going to national portrait gallery and honestly i did not know where it was! so we got off at Charing station and i was like how long do we need to walk there? and he goes like: its about half an hour walk from here as i didn't feel like waiting on the tube we got off earlier! So for those of you who have lived their whole lives in London know that the portrait gallery is actually a 2 minutes walk from the actual National gallery, and as I am known for being moody and a grumpy cat in mornings he easily managed to get the "grumpster" Kiana out and had me nagging for the whole 2 minute walk!!!! IMAGINE THAT

These are some photos for you to enjoy, they are mostly Grayson Perry's work which were very interesting and they were all inspired by people's lives.




 I should have taken a photo of the descriptions as well so I could tell you what each of them mean but well I wasn't planning on opening up a blog on that day and everything happened very spontaneously, so yeah sorry about that bit. :D

And oh also here is a photo of two artists which were drawing all the world flags in front of national gallery using chalk, and I took a photo of this bit cause my country's flag is in this part. So do you wanna have a guess which flag is it and when I'm from? leave a comment below and share your guess!



Thanks all for reading.
