Wordless Wednesday...

We took the boys to an art gallery showing this last weekend. A little culture is always good right? This particular showing was unique in a way that interested the boys in particular though.
The artist works in Legos. The above portrait is done in a mosaic style, with Legos.

Then there were the sculptures...

The boys really liked the art, and so did we.
If you are interested in seeing other artwork by the artist Nathan Sawaya, check it out here.
He has every little boy's dream job.
