A Day at the Art Museum! (by Julie)

Hey it's Julie! We have been spending a lot of time running around outside and playing this summer. A few days ago Josefina suggested we do something different. So we went to a local art museum! Okay...some of us weren't so excited about it. I mean how exciting can looking at paintings be? But we had an amazing time! It was so cool to see actual paintings, not just pictures. Our favorite part was a section that had recreations of really famous paintings. When we got home all we could talk about was what our favorite paintings were, how cool the sculptures were, and how shiny the floor was! The museum did have a particularly reflective tile floor! Then Marisol had a really good idea, we could recreate some of the works of art with ourselves! We rushed to find costumes and scenery to match the famous paintings. We had a really crazy time doing the photo session! So here is some of the artwork we saw, followed by our AG Gossip Recreations!

I Got to Judge! (By Kaya)

Guess What Everyone? I got to judge a Fall Art Contest! Everyone who entered just looooooves AG Gossip. So seeing me there, they got sooo excited that they let me pick 2 awards! I thought it through very hard, and it took me a long time to pick the winners because they were all so good! Finally, I ended up picking two wonderful pictures that I'm sure you'll love. I posted them here!
