My apple of eye hang-out in Paris is the Modern Art Museum. A the big juicy treat, indeed. Outside youngsters skateboard and make their mp3 players chant. I take the first bite and crack the complex by the Tokyo Palace restaurant. Nippon tang blows right at me.

I peel, and I enter into a vast space where Matisse’s Danse de Paris, a magnificent mural, occupies nobly the entire hall. I stand admiration.

Munching on more, I penetrate deeper into the permanent collections, letting the eras of modern art – Picasso, de Kooning and Klein – lull me. I ponder on the fact that art lets me live. It inspires and boosts. I love to see the world through these glasses. I juxtapose the safe museum inside, and the somewhat chaotic outer world. They mix into a nice cocktail – full of peps and punch.

The bookstore also beguiles me. And why resist?

Colorful images, of my like, blow into my mind. Luscious eye-candy. Fashion and all sort.

I decide on an espresso and savor it in a content cloud. The art dose is gently paying its dues.

The majestic settings prolong the pleasure.

Art rises up to the skies – my thoughts adjourn on the beauties of this world, and more.

   Audrey – Dance and Paris… all in a beautiful art piece. It’s getting too tasty to take it all in. I regularly pop in to admire Matisse’s works.

   Fashion CHALET – Looking young is great, huh.
