  I am an art student and I paint a lot of
pictures. Many people pretend that they
understand modern art. They always tell
you what a picture is 'about'. Of course,
many pictures arc not 'about' anything.
They are just pretty patterns. We like
them in the same way that we like pretty
curtain material. I think that young child-
ren often appreciate modern pictures
better than anyone else. They notice
more. My sister is only seven, but she
always tells me whether my pictures are
good or not. She came into my room
yesterday.
' What are you doing ?' she asked.
' I'm hanging this picture on the wall,'
I answered. 'It's a new one. Do you like it ?'
She looked at it critically for a moment.' It's all right,' she said, 'but isn't it
upside-down ?'
I looked at it again. She was right! It was!
