The art of Mac Worthington as seen at the Dublin Arts Center on 1-19-2010

Last Friday Paige and Megan spent the night at Deb and Buds. After a breakfast at First Watch Aunt Deb took the girls to check out the Dublin Arts Center. They had such a fun time they wanted me to take them back on Tuesday (they had the day off school) so they could share this little gem of a museum with me. We will be regulars now that we know that it is there, from the road it looks like a lovely old home. I hadn't realized that it was a museum I had thought that it was a place to take art classes.
So now we know!

Mac Worthington is a local artist and these pieces were made from the metal of reclaimed cars. They are so vibrant and fun to look at. They even have postcards so you can leave messages and share your thoughts. The kids had fun writing and explaining what they saw when they looked at the different pieces.
This one above and below reminds me of a box of Chicklets gum!

The girls loved this long wall sculpture that started life as a stretch limo!

I love how each sculpture changes color and shape as you walk around them and see them from new angles. It's almost hard to believe that the picture above and the one below are of the same sculpture.

The blue sculpture above Paige's head is her favorite. She says it looks like a dolphin jumping through a hoop.

Paige was having fun taking pictures with her camera and Megan was having fun posing!

Megan wrote that this piece reminded her of a spinning top.

Megan told me that this silver-white glittery piece above reminded her of her lightning costume from her jazz class last year.
