Episode 1: "Hello, everypet! Hello! How are we today? I am Gliomach, and I will be your guide to the Old Masters today.
I have several degrees in fine arts, and I assure you, if you should have any questions about the art on display, I am glad to answer for you.
I get giddy just thinking about seeing these incredible works of art! All originals, you know. I even authenticated some myself! Did I mention that I have a degree in fine arts? Oh, I did? Well, then, let the tour begin!
Remember to stay together as a group, we mustn't straggle and get lost!"

Episode 2: "The Scream by Edvard Munch is hanging on my bedroom wall," exclaimed Chippee! "It's been my favorite poster for years!"

"Poster? Poster? Why this is an original, good pet!" Gliomach cried out! "It has been one of the crowning jewels of the gallery and you dare to call it a poster. Oh my, what is the world coming to?"
Gliomach puts his claws over his eyes and cries a little tear at the thought of everypet not appreciating true art.

Episode 3: "And here we have The Town by Paul Klee. You can enjoy the lighthearted colors and shapes and really, how does it make you feel? Restful? Energetic?" Gliomach asked.
After studying it for a few moments, Chippee yawned and thought it looked very much like the quilt made by Grammie Everypet, and that perhaps a nap right here wouldn't be such a bad idea...........

Episode 4: "Well," said Gliomach, "this is Whistler's Mother, a painting by James McNeil Whistler. I have always wondered if, with a name like Whistler, he could carry a tune?" *giggle*.

Chippee's eyes rolled, and just took in the canvas. Chippee thought her bonnet had longer ties? But maybe not...

Episode 5: "Here we have Houses of Parliament, Sunset by Claude Monet. Monet was well known for a series of paintings of the River Thames, and we have the most rare of them all, here on display at Musee d'art de Cannelle! This is one of the very few that Monet painted in vivid color, using the colors of sunset in the fog."
Chippee is a little leery of calling it an actual Monet, but it's pretty, and Chippee enjoys looking at it just the same.

Episode 6: "Henri Rousseau painted this Portrait Of The Father Of The Artist, and generously bequeathed it to Musee d'art de Cannelle in his last will and testament," Gliomach breathed with excitement!
Whipping out a trusty smartz phone, Chippee quickly looked up information on Rousseau, only to find that he passed away long before the gallery was around, since this was the grand opening. Peering at the canvas, Chippee also noticed the Petmart price tag still attached to the side of the canvas. Rather than argue with Gliomach about authenticity, Chippee moved on to the next wall hanging.

Episode 7: Gliomach clatters over to the next painting, "That is Self Portrait Facing Death (June 30, 1972) by Pablo Picasso." Gliomach continues on, explaining that this was done in the later years by Picasso, who created whatever he wanted, however he wanted.

Chippee thought there might have been something similar hanging on the fridge, drawn by the neighbor's toddler, but dared not critique it in front of Gliomach, since he was a little snippy the last time.

Episode 8: Gliomach waves his claw dramatically toward the next work of art. "Here we have St. Peter Enthroned by Italian painter Tommaso di Giovanni di Simone Guidi, who came to be nicknamed Masaccio. Although he was one of the most significant painters of the early 15th century, very little is known about his training, and the influences that shaped his unique style remain a mystery to this day."

As Gliomach drones on, Chippee wonders if there might be an even bigger mystery here?

Episode 9: Café Terrace at Night is an 1888 oil painting by the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh, which showcases the local cuisine of our town, as the cafe is still open, and you can visit there! Amazing that it has become timeless!" Gliomach said.

Chippee, however, realizes that it's been some time since lunch and starts daydreaming about that caramel apple cinnamon frappe for breakfast, and wonders what culinary masterpieces might be at the cafe?

Episode 10: "Well, that is a pretty fancy apartment," Chippee exclaimed after Gliomach announced the title. "A Corner of the Apartment by Claude Monet is certainly not water lilies, is it?"
Chippee was curious if this might be an authentic Monet, but upon looking at the signature, it looked a little more like Momet than Monet................

Episode 11: "Walk this way, you must see this one! Mondrian's Composition II in Red, Blue and Yellow is always a crowd favorite! How does it make you feel? What do you think about it? Can you imagine the talent it took to create this masterpiece?"
Gliomach is very passionate about this piece. Chippee wonders secretly how to paint it since it would be a brilliant new wall cover in the living room. And do you think anyone would pay for that re-creation?

Episode 12: "Rene Margritte painted "This Is Not a Pipe" in 1948, and minds were blown! Why, how can you say it's not a pipe, when it clearly is a pipe?"
Chippee grabbed a trusty smartz phone, using Petoogle, and looked up WHY it would be titled that. After some interesting reading, Chippee, clearly even more confused, sauntered on after Gliomach to the next display.

Episode 13: "Raphael's Cherubs! I got that as a birthday card last year," exclaimed Chippee!
Gliomach smothered a deep sigh, trying not to be frustrated with the lack of art knowledge by this everypet, and counting down the minutes to the next break.
Chippee seemed pretty excited though, to see that popular art in the original, wait, maybe not the original? Chippee sees a little tell all stuck to the canvas. It appears to be a price tag from Ikeeyah?

Episode 14: "And here, we have Church, Taos Pueblo by Ansel Adams," said Gliomach as he waved his claw in the direction of the wall hanging.
Chippee asked, "Excuse me, but wasn't that a photograph? I mean, Ansel Adams was a photographer, right? Not a painter."
Gliomach turned a ghastly shade of blue and replied that painting was Ansel's favorite pastime, a very unpublished secret, and that the original, displayed here, was actually a painting.
Chippee remained skeptical, but played along, and nodded, which seemed to make Gliomach happy.

Episode 15: Gliomach was full of immense knowledge about Water Lilies by Claude Monet, and Chippee learned a lot. Surprisingly to Chippee, this might actually be an original, authentic piece! Because Monet painted 250 different scenes featuring his water lilies in oils, this might be THE ONE! Chippee peers closely at the canvas, and doesn't see anything obvious that says it might be a forgery! Monet's Lilies for the win!

Episode 16: "Does it speak to you?" asked Gliomach.

The painting on the wall, Maurice Denis', The Two Sisters, 1891, did actually speak to Chippee! This everypet recalls great memories with the siblings and sharing silly secrets, and actually enjoyed this painting, forgery or authentic original!

Episode 17: Chippee finds the oil canvas, Twelve Sunflowers by Van Gogh to be intriguing. Such details in the brush work! But wait, are those plastic seeds stuck in the paint? Chippee is pretty sure plastic wasn't around back then, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Episode 18: "The Birth of Venus by Botticelli is a gallery favorite," Gliomach exclaimed excitedly, gliding over to the sizable painting.
Chippee stands back to take in all the different elements of this one. Amazed at the sheer size, Chippee notices that it's two panels, sewn together, but you can hardly notice the seam. Closing his eyes, Gliomach mentions that if you close your eyes, you can almost hear the ocean...............

Episode 19: "The Son of Man by René Magritte is one of the gallery's finest pieces," Gliomach exclaims, showing off the painting with pride to Chippee. "It's been seen all over the world, mimicked by other artists, and even used by companies for logos."

Chippee laughed, and mentioned that perhaps this, too, might be a mimic piece, but Gliomach snorted and stormed away, grumbling about visitors not knowing a pièce de ré·sis·tance when they see it.

Episode 20: "Eyes that captivated the world," Gliomach tells Chippee. "The original title is National Geographic's Afghan Girl and it took years to locate the girl with magical eyes after it was taken."

Chippee didn't want to be rude, but the eyes in the gallery piece had a creepy way of following Chippee when moving around to see the picture better. It's time to move on to the next master!

Episode 21: "And here we have on display The Ancient of Days painted by William Blake," Gliomach explained as he showed off the canvas. "Did you know that this was also one of Blake's favorite works that he created?"
Chippee was mesmerized by the contrast of the painting, and was amazed that there were the same colors in a box of crayons, and gave serious thought about trying to recreate it later on the wall of the hotel room.....

Episode 22: "Pablo Picasso's Seated Woman with Hood, was painted in 1902 at Staatsgalerie. Stuttgart, Germany is where this artistic gem is normally showcased," explained Gliomach, "but it's on special loan to Musee d'art de Cannelle. Cannelle is a special friend of the curator there and they were gracious enough to loan it for our grand opening!"

Episode 23: "Toulouse Lautrec's Woman Lithographic Poster is the next painting on our tour, and we're so very blessed to have procured the original, so authentic, yes it is!" Gliomach gushed.
Chippee wasn't so sure, since there appeared to be some faint numbers under that yellow hair, making Chippee think of the childhood paint by numbers everypet would do during a rainy day..................

Episode 24: "Well, here it is! Please be careful when gazing on the beauty, you wouldn't want to trip our extensive alarm system! This is obviously the original of Leonardo Da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa', and we must be careful to preserve the painting at all costs."
"Cannelle considered hiring a super ninja to keep it safe, but decided on electronic security hidden in sly places." Gliomach played with the remote in his clumsy claws, accidentally tripping the siren and flashing lights. While everypet on the tour scrambled to get out of the way of security guards, Chippee noted that Mona Lisa's smile looked a little more like a smirk, and did she really just wink? How is that possible?

Episode 25: After viewing all of the inspiring works in this section of Musee d’Art de Cannelle, Chippee 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 Chippee stumbles upon a quaint cottage, which looks very similar to one in a Monet masterpiece....
"A present for me?" asks Chippee, hardly daring to hope!
