A Visit to Abstract Painting (809-4)

Hi, my name is Charlie and I am 8 years old. Today, I want to share with you my exciting visit to an art gallery and a cool tourist attraction in the same city. It was so much fun!

So, let me tell you all about it. First, my family and I went to a gallery called the City Art Gallery, located in Dublin, Ireland. Inside the gallery, there was a special painting called "Untitled" by Graham Knuttel. It was a really colorful and abstract painting with lots of different shapes and lines. I didn't understand it all, but it looked really cool!

After spending some time at the gallery, we headed to another tourist attraction in the same city. It was the Dublin Zoo! I love animals, so I was super excited to see all the different creatures there. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and even penguins! My favorite were the monkeys, they were so funny and playful.
