"If your vision is one year, plant rice. If your vision is ten years, plant trees.
If your vision is one hundred years, educate your children in the arts."
Kids were very productive this month-we 'studied' Picasso and Matisse and talked not only about the art that they were famous for but about the artists themselves-about their relationship with eachother, and their own personal history. The kids seemed very interested in them as people. I think that it is important to connect kids to the 'masters' as human beings so that they can appreciate the art and feel more connected.
I feel blessed and thankful this month to have the opportunity to meet with these special kids and 'educate' them, alittle bit, in this world of Art-from exploring techniques and reading about Artists-
All my thanks for sharing this experience with us;
ReplyDeleteLove the children's work.
Witnessing their 'climb' on this amazing venture... enterprise, of creativity is inspirational of itself.
