Today My Mum and I, visited the Pablo Picasso– Peace and Freedom Exhibition, that’s currently on at Tate Liverpool.

It’s an amazing exhibition, with some really beautiful pieces of art on show, particularly his birds paintings and ceramics, which is what I went to see. Picasso was particularly fond of pigeons and doves, and drew them regularly.

We love pigeons too!! I know not many people do, but I think they are amazing birds, all so different and unique, so it was amazing to see such rare and beautiful drawings.

We also visited the Walker Art Gallery, to see the Toulouse-Lautrec- High Kicks and Low Life exhibition, which is free to have a look round. The exhibition contains his drawings of famous dancers from the night clubs of Paris and of course his Moulin Rouge posters, which were my favourite!

We did’nt have much time for shopping unfortunately, made it to one vintage shop though, called Pop Boutique which is located on Whitechapel Street, it was only a brief visit though! As well as one off pieces, It stocks it’s own label called Pop and has some rather nice dresses, I saw some tempting pieces!! But I did well and managed to resist!!
