We will be studying the work of master artist Vincent Van Gogh this month. Although he lived a tragic life, he had a special ability to focus the attention of his viewers on what he deemed to be most important. His expressive paintings capture our imagination like none other.
* Unfortunately the artwork photos I took during our last class somehow got corrupted. If you would like for your work to be included on the cover of one of the art kits for the Boys and Girls club, please bring it back to class and I will re-photograph it. Thanks for understanding!
