Arty Party

This past weekend we were invited to Paul and Nan's joint 'Art Department' birthday party. The invitation stated that we must come dressed as a piece of art (drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, photograph…) so we put on our thinking caps. 



Ben had been gifted a pair of tight shorts, almost like biking shorts from his father. The great thing about these shorts were that they contained the famous Michael Angelo's sculpture, 'The David's' crown jewels. So it was decided that Ben would come dressed as one of the most famous statues in the world. 




After much deliberation over M.C. Escher, Salvidor Dali and the like, Emerald decided to look into Pop Art, in particular Roy Lichtenstein's 'Girls'. Our friend Emily also decided to join the pop culture and became transformed into the 'Crying Girl'. 





The party was like a living art house, with characters from Frida Kahlo to two 'Girl with the pearl earring'
