Eleven seconds ⏱️
That's how long the average person spends looking at a painting in a museum. I used to be one of those people, rushing past masterpieces without understanding. Then I discovered the secrets hiding in plain sight. 💡
The morning walk that changed everything 👧🧔♂️
Walking my daughter to school, I started telling her incredible artist stories instead of discussing homework. Love affairs, rivalries, scandals behind famous paintings.
She was captivated and suddenly wanted to visit museums. Emotion makes art unforgettable.
Why I created this ? 🖼️
I'm not an art historian. I just believe art should be entertaining and accessible, not trapped in elitist books gathering dust on coffee tables.
Through @cool.stories.about.art on Instagram, I discovered thousands of people felt the same way. They wanted to understand, to connect, to see beyond the surface.
