March Break excursion in the Windy Snow

It was a dark and stormy day. Mama Bear said to her cub inside their warm little cave, "We have no reason to leave, we are cozy and the wind outside is howling, the snow is flying." The weather had been like this for days and days and they had seen no sun or fresh air. The little cub complained, "We have plans to go and see what our friends have put up in the museum, please Mama Bear can we put on our scarfs and explore." Since we had no school we bundled up with sleighs, water bottles, imaginations and colored pencils and headed out into the wind. Many battles and adventures ensured on our journey to and from our destination but the best part was our arrival at the wonderful museum hall.


So many bright pictures to look at! Some of our ancestors Mary Pratt and Walter Tandy Murch shared with us paintings that made us wonder, giggle and ponder. The little cub made a book copying the works of Walter Tandy Murch and titled his works as follows: the Lightning Samurai, The Flight of Heaven, zaezo, The Town of Makers, Untitled. This little family of bears is so happy to have had the chance to catch "The Spirit of Things" exhibit and recommends it with two paws up. You and your family of artists should check it out before April 18th 2010 if you're close by. Pictured below: The Town of Makers by Bergen inspired by The Gravity Experiment by Walter Murch and The Lightning Samurai inspired by the same exhibit.
