Art Gallery Fun

We haven't sat down at the computer for a few days because we have been so busy with activities and other school related things.  Today, we adventured out to Campbelltown as Aaron had an Orthodontic appointment. His braces came off today, how very exciting! Toffee Apples will be made this week :)
While in Campbelltown we visited Nanna at the Embroiderer's Guild based at the Campbelltown Art Gallery.  A great opportunity to walk around these beautiful gardens and check out some of the exhibits.  The kids loved the sculpture garden.

Here are some of the photos of our adventure.

Aaron's Blog:
I thought the Art Gallery had a very nice feel to it. You know that joyful feeling and sense of peace that you get when everything feels right. My favourite sculpture was "The Wind Tells a Tale". I loved that you could put your ear up to some wood and metal and hear the vibrations of the wind. It was cool. We saw some of the work of the ladies in the Embroiderer's Guild, there was one about the Camden Fair, it was awesome.  It showed our town's character and was a very joyful artwork.  The lady who made it must really love our town, it shows in her work.

I thought the Art Gallery was awesome. I loved the drawing of the pattern in the rocks. I liked it because it shows the patterns were made out of tools that were next to it.  You could see how they scraped the tools over all the small rocks to make the patterns.  It was the coolest thing I've ever seen.
