While going on our trip to the Museum of Brands we stumbled upon an adorable art gallery in Notting Hill. The town itself is absolutely adorable, with colorful little houses, town-home/flat style as usual in London, that have a quaint yet intriguing feeling about them. This art gallery was no exception. There were two art pieces that particularly stood out to me. The first one was a bold yet interesting word collage of sorts. With splashes of color, the piece said "Art cannot be criticized because every mistake is a new creation." This was very interesting to me as it not only said something about art but of life. You can make mistakes but without mistakes nothing new would ever happen and we might miss many unique opportunities. The next piece of art was more comical. The picture was pretty simple, with pink, white and black as the only colors and two grandmas knitting in rocking chairs. The funny part is that one granny is knitting a sweater that says "Punks Not Dead" and the other is knitting a sweater that says "Thug for Life." This put a smile on my face because it showed that no matter how old we get, we cannot forget to stay young in our minds. It hit me personally as college is soon coming to an end, but this reminded me to keep being me no matter where life takes me and no matter how old I get. Overall, I am very glad to have found this art gallery as it helped bring to light some simple yet important life mottos.
