Friedrich Nietzsche, 1844-1900
We have art so that we may not perish by the truth, Friedrich Nietzsche. Seniors and I will be discussing this quote by the German philosopher and poet.
Do you agree, does art save us from the truth?
Is art salvation?

A history of abstract art
Abstract Art is always a fun subject for students and it’s a great tool for imaginative exploration of creativity. I was excited when a friend shared this article with me. I have to take time for a trip to New York City to see this exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts. Anyway, it’s the perfect excuse for a worthwhile experience.
New classes!
Happy new year! I’m pleased to announce my upcoming Saturday classes at the Worcester Art Museum. Classes begin January 14th and end March 10th.
With a variety of materials students and I will be exploring and creating landscapes, cityscapes, seascapes, and more. We’ll also be learning about famous artists from different parts of our world!
Students will be studying works of the past to inspire new works of their own with subject matter that is real, and some that is surreal. Lessons will be both two dimensional and three dimension with a final project that incorporates both.
