I was fortunate to be able to take a day off today to spend a few hours at the Art Gallery of Ontario.

I looked much more closely at the old European paintings and was surprised how loose a lot of the brushwork was - some of Rembrandt's marks could have been made by Sargent. Thought I had really misremembered how precise painters used to be.

Then I spotted a #Canaletto.
