With so many paintings of jungles and forests, Rousseau should have been a tireless traveler! Mati and Dada visit him in Paris and discover that he has never visited a real jungle! Instead, he went to a botanical greenhouse and created imaginary jungle paintings choosing plants he liked. ‘The Dream’ shows a nude woman asleep on a couch dreaming of being in a tropical forest. ‘Tiger in a Tropical Storm’ is full of action and has bright colours.

Seven-year old Mati is a cheerful girl with a wild imagination and a zesty passion for art. Along with her eccentric sidekick Dada, she’s magically transported into the lives of the greatest artists in history.

Together, these two friends go on exciting adventures with the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali. Hand in hand, they travel throughout time and art, solving mysteries and sometimes getting into trouble ~ all the while learning from the Masters themselves.

This wonderful animated series is a fun and imaginative introduction to art for budding artists everywhere!
