1. That's pretty amazing

I really liked that Marilyn Monroe painting.

2. Welcome to DU! I do too, and the John Lennon painting is really something as well!

Makes me feel like taking an art class

3. It blows my mind when she actually touches the painting in the second video! WTH?

1:03-1:04.

Who does that? Maybe she bought it, but still...

4. I've often had the urge to touch artwork.

Mostly because creating it is often such a tactile and physical experience so I want to feel it.

Buthe I have no idea what she was thinking.

5. I, like you, understand the urge-for me it comes from wanting to feel something so

beautiful or just feeling overwhelmed and acting on impulse. But we know better! I believe that painting sold at auction for $45,000.00. I understand her appreciation of the painting. Do you remember the movie "Mr. Bean"? It reminded me of that, though the situations are different.

6. Yeah, I remember feeling a little anxious when I saw that the for the first time.

I was just at a museum today looking at 3000 yr old Egyptian artifacts. Good thing they were all protected!

7. No art is safe when Mr.Bean's in town!

Sounds like a great day at the museum
