Art In Island Review

We went to a birthday in Quezon City last Sunday. I thought, while we're there, we might as well go to Art in Island since it's just 15 minutes away from where the party was.

Did I mention it was a Sunday? 

Anyway, the party was in the afternoon so we went to Art in Island in the morning. Well actually, since we drove for two hours in the morning, we got to Quezon City around 11:00 a.m. so we decided to have early lunch first at Ali Mall. Yes, Ali Mall is still in existence and that was my very first time to enter it. 

So after lunch, off we went to our destination. We got a little lost so we ended up going there through the back way. Which was okay because we ended up in a place much bigger than what we expected.

They said to bring socks and jacket (from their facebook page) so I did for my daughter, but not for me.  Well, it was okay not to bring socks because a lot of the people inside were just barefoot. They sold pairs of footwear at the entrance just a little better than foot mittens if you don't want your feet to get cold or dirty.

When you get inside, you'll understand why shoes should be off. The paintings are everywhere, even the floors. So even though they're covered with like a colorless polish, we wouldn't want those priceless paintings to get scratched.

Here are some of them...

How many people do you see?

Because it's a Sunday, there were lots of people (without artistic sense, sorry to say) who just get in the way without waiting for their turn so that they can get the bigger picture.

For a lot of the paintings you really have to take them far back to get the whole thing or the whole story behind if I may say.

It was really fun posing for the shots. I honestly didn't think my princess will have that much fun there since they're just paintings and she doesn't like posing for picture-taking (until now) but she actually did.

It was a good experience and what's better is seeing our pictures after that which really looked like we were part of the painting.
