Bailey's Art Camp

I thought Bailey would enjoy Gramma Camp with an emphasis on the arts...so we began at the Boise Art Museum:
                                       In the ceramics gallery, this piece represents river rocks...
                                  This huge installation is called Angle of Repose, made with fusible web, otherwise known as interfacing or Pellon in the sewing biz.  In the shape of a cornucopia, filling the space of a gym-sized gallery, this is intricate, beautiful, and truly unique.  
                                   Then we took the Boise Public Art Tour...checking out various styles of architecture.
                              Bailey especially liked the Art Deco Hoff building, inside and out.
                                       The public art "Totems" represent native culture of the Northwest.
                             We took in  the DaVinci exhibit which inspired a Mona Lisa pose.
                             We took a break while Bailey honed her Weathergirl skills...and played with the green screen.
                          We ended our day at the Idaho Shakespeare Festival..."The Merry Wives of Windsor" given a  1940's vibe.  She said, "This has been the best day!"   For what more could a grandma ask?
