Our visit to the Kyneton Museum

Arriving at the Kyneton Museum .

David McCubbin great grandson of the artist
Frederick McCubbin told us about his
grandfather's life. Then he introduced
 Mark Wilson author and illustrator.

Mark shares with us his journey of
 becoming an author and illustrator.

We do a drawing workshop with Mark.
He shows us how to draw a turtle.
Grace and Alandri concentrate on
drawing their turtle.

Brodie, Ryan and James are also drawing
a turtle as well as other objects.

We are listening to Mark and following his
instructions to draw.

This is Mark's picture of a sea turtle.

Henry is standing next to David McCubbin
because the McCubbin house was next to
where he live's  now.

Mark tells us about his book and explains
his illustrations. Here Ben and Gracie are
about to enter his "Olden Days."

Ben and Gracie land near a cart. It is going
to the mountains with a family who are
going to build a house in the bush.

We went on an introductory tour of the
Museum discovering and learning about
the Olden Days. Then Grace, Ruby and
 Christina enjoyed playing a game
together outside. 

Lola, Isi and Oliver play another old
fashioned game.

We thought the Kyneton Museum was really cool!!!
