Art from the California State Fair

It's hard for me to pick what my favorite thing to eat at the State Fair is, but it's not hard for me to pick what my favorite thing to do at the State Fair is....look at all of the art exhibits! I enjoy this every year, as there is always something new and interesting to see. There are three main buildings of art exhibits, and a couple of others that are dedicated to architecture, food, and animals. Here are some wonderful works of art that caught my eye while going through the young artist's building.....all of these works were created by children & young adults, and they are amazing! This building of art is my favorite of all....the talent that these young artists have is incredible. I encourage you all to visit your local County and State Fair, and see the wonderful art that will be on display there....you will be in for a treat!

I hope that you enjoyed the young artist's art....and I will be back with "part two" from my day at the California State Fair.

Sounds like a fun time Sylvia! My son went with some friends to our State Fair this year, but I'm pretty sure they didn't make it to the Art Exhibits! :) I'll have to try to go next year.
