What a wonderful existence. To take in as much art as humanly possible. To rise in the morning and collect art the way bees collect pollen. To enjoy Bach while making breakfast. To read Austen while drinking your morning coffee. To listen to Billie Holiday while driving into work. To gaze upon one of Van Gogh’s 900 paintings during lunch. To fall asleep to Casablanca after trying your hand at a recipe thought up by some culinary genius in a tall white hat. What a wonderful existence. To take in as much art as humanly possible.
