‘...I felt a lot smarter looking at art...’
“I would recommend ArtontheBrain because it was very interesting and you learn something. I felt a lot smarter looking at art. I like learning about people, artists and stuff like that. I liked it because I was learning something. That is important for me since I can’t sit still for a long time to read a book”
