We went to Cardiff Museum today and visited the art gallery with the specific intention of looking at the Monets there. He was entranced by the paintings, possibly as much as he was by the echo.
This is for a forthcoming art project initiated by RedTedArt, keep your eyes peeled!
Thanks, against the cool of the blue wall, it really stands out doesn't it? It is edited slightly because they don't allow flash-photography; I used one of PicMonkey's filters called Urbane at 50% fade.
He was interested in it because if you look at his hands they are holding a small storybook about Monet's waterlillies. He was trying to match up the pictures.
Thanks, I forget that we have some of Monet's most beautiful paintings on our doorstep. I can't wait to get started on the project with him, just planning it through in my head.
That's a really nice photo, the wood floor and the painting's frame make it look so warm, and he looks incredibly interested.
Is it edited at all, or straight out of the camera?

Lovely picture. Excited to see your project too. You have had a busy week!

And you're right, I'm bloody knackered!
Great photo! We love a nosey round the museums. Our local one is a shoe one! x
A shoe museum?! How incredibly random but also quite fun if it's a bit extreme?
That's a bit high brow! Unlike our low brown day yesterday haha! Such beautiful works of art to show him. X
awww bless him that's so cute. x
That is such a great photo!!!! I just love the way he's standing with his head tilted to one side :0)
Aww he looks like he's taking it so seriously!
Such a great picture! The boy looks so cute π x
That is brilliant! Is it posed at all or just a fab moment caught deep in thought? And what did the critic make of it?
Very intelligent lad you have there then.
i thought you might choose this photo. it is fab x
He has very good taste and you have a natural eye. Lovely photo
Awwww even from the back he looks like he's really concentrating!
It's been a while since we did something like this – note to self must sort it out. Love the way he's so intent on the picture.
I love this photo! He is really concentrating isn't he? It is a lovely painting though he has good taste!
I LOVE this!
Such a lovely photo, he's looking so enthralled by it!
Wow – I didn't know there was Monet in Cardiff. Such a lovely one as well. Looks like he was really interested in the painting.
love it! So funny!
very lovely photo
That's a really lovely photo π
ooooh, he looks to be really studying it π
Love it -he looks fascinated. I keep meaning to take mine to an art gallery.
Beautiful photo. I can't imagine my son standing there like that, more likely charging around at high speed grabbing hold of anything he can!
I just love the angle of his head! He's really giving that picture serious thought.
It really does look like he is about to critique this masterpiece.
I love Monet's work.
