Episode 4: "Trio has been much debated by contemporary art critics," explains Homard, "do these creatures represent pets unknown to us? Do those blank stares see past our facades, and into our very souls?"
Natalie doesn't know about facades, but they do look quite cuddly...

Episode 6: Red Twinkle and Lace Dress
From the Pauli Hoh collection
With just a hint of subtle sparkle and the classic elegance of handmade lace, this sassy red gown will make sure all eyes are on you. A ruffled flirty skirt and delicate straps make this gown smolder, and the fitted bodice gives you that hourglass silhouette. No doubt this sexy little number will put a twinkle in someone’s eye. ;)

Episode 7: Homard uses this artwork to explain the historical significance of Lichtenstein-style pop art, using imagery from popular culture. Natalie stifles a yawn, becoming more convinced as this tour progresses, that words do have a way of detracting from Natalie's private appreciation of each artwork, when Natalie's imagination is interrupted or derailed by Homard's voice droning on and on and on!

Episode 8: Piggyback is one of Homard's favourite works of art in the Musee! Piggyback was created by one of PnF's finest purveyors of tiny art, so it is hardly surprising that Natalie and the whole tour group are mesmerised by the level of detail and the sense of whimsy this piece evokes!

Episode 19: Geometric Red Dress
From the Pauli Hoh collection
Hey, chaps and chapesses, this divine little frock shows us just how important triangles are. We couldn't do without this versatile three-sided shape in everyday design, and clothes are just as important as buildings or bridges! Remember Pythonagoras’ theorem from school? The one that goes “The squirrel on the hippopotamus is equal to some of the squirrels on the other two sides”? What’s that got to do with the price of onions, did I hear you say? Well, never mind—just look at this dress: a thing of beauty and a joy forever. It’s a striking and pleasing colour combo of scarlet and purple, with a border of autumnal flowers around the hem. The whole thing is set off with a beautiful floppy red bow linking the shoulder straps.

Episode 20: "Here we have a fine example from the artist's green period" Homard explains, waving a claw for emphasis.

Episode 21: Homard pumps out his chest with pride, turning to Natalie and the group, to present the most popular abstract piece in the whole Musee! This amazing composition, which the Musee calls Can of Worms was created by a relatively unknown PnF artist. Surely Can of Worms will become a future masterpiece, and rival Blue Poles' $350 million price tag, because worms are much more complex to draw than poles, are they not?

Episode 22: Singing in the Rain is an avant garde artwork, intended to be reminiscent of an old silent movie. This perception is enhanced by the haute couture of the subject's top hat and frock coat, and the laissez faire manner in which the subject's umbrella appears to be travelling on ahead of him when he pauses to dance a step or two in a puddle with a light pole, unchary of the effect on his formal attire!

Episode 23: Homard presents one of the Musee's more colourful contemporary pop art pieces for Natalie and the group's viewing pleasure. Natalie loves the way the bright colours and different shaped objects all seem to blend into each other, to create a cohesive whole! An interestingly modern take on a Christmas tree, for sure!

Episode 24: During the celebration of Dia de los Muertos, the Day of the Dead, sugar skulls are used to decorate the offerings to the dead, and have also become a pop culture decoration. The artist here is clearly toying with the adorability of the panda and combining it with the starkness of skulls. One wonders what's in the punch bowl and how good it must taste...

Episode 25: After viewing all of the inspiring works in this section of Musee d’Art de Cannelle, Natalie is feeling a little sad to have to return to a gourd house that looks exactly the same as every other gourd house in PnF Land, which is not terribly exciting...because if you've seen one gourd house, you've seen them all!

But suddenly Natalie stumbles upon a stately mansion, which looks very similar to one in a Wyeth masterpiece...
"A present for me?" asks Natalie, hardly daring to hope!
