Ha! I hadn't really consciously registered that, but you're so right. It's like the encounter with art not only opened up a sense of herself as an individual, but it also put her in touch with her up-to-then hidden romantic side.

Although I'm sure a part of her is wishing she could have spared some of that for Gregory way back when, too. I thought a lot about how she would have been wishing she could tell Gregory she was starting to get his "art thing".
