And all that Jazz

Recently I was able to fulfill one of my dreams; going to the Art Institute of Chicago to see Seurat’s A Sunday on La Grande Jatte. It was incredible to view this painting up close after many years of admiring it in my art history books. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get that song from Ferris Beuller’s Day Off out of my head the whole time – and not the song that’s playing when they’re at the gallery looking at the painting but rather the song playing while Ferris is racing to beat his sister home and he sees his dad in the car and has to cut through the neighbour’s house but still has time to stop and talk to the sunbathing ladies. O Ferris.

The beautiful skyline.


The sky itself.
