So many moms have told me that they love, love, LOVE our Fine Art Pages, because it adds beauty to their home, and allows their children to become familiar with many works of art without demanding any time or energy from the school day or from mom!
If you have been looking for one lovely thing to include in your homeschool that doesn’t run on Mom Power, this is it.  The concept is simple and effective:  Print ’em out, put ’em up.  Stick these works of art on the walls in bedrooms, bathrooms, by the kitchen sink, or on the backs of doors.  Anywhere the eye naturally falls is a spot that you can infuse with something lovely, interesting, or inspiring, and feed good art right into the brains of those you love.  🙂  Why not get a few sets of Fine Art Pages and start trying them out in your home today?
What is Superman was born in the sixteenth century? What if the Hulk was a Duke? How might Van Eyck have portrayed Snow White?
If you have been using our Artist Study collections, you have certainly noticed the various portraiture styles of centuries gone by.  Artist Sacha Goldberger asked these questions, and skillfully re-imagined today’s superheroes  using classic 17th century painting techniques. The use of light and shadow, as well as 17th century period detailing and textile work are a delightful.  Don’t you agree?
The artist has generously shared a downloadable PDF of this collection, along with more information about this project, for you to enjoy. Â The download for it is at the bottom of this post. Â Enjoy!
What a cool opportunity to watch Kandinsky actually creating a piece of art! Â His work is typically well-received by children, and I think this is a perfect example of the elements of drawing, if you’re sharing those with your kids. Â (what are they? Â Lines, curves, angles, dots, and circles!) You can see a lot of Kandinsky’s works here.
Wow! Â Have you ever seen this beautiful sport/art form? Â This is a new one for me, although apparently it has been around for awhile. Â How lovely. Â And how inspirational that there are always new ways for art and beauty to come forward in the world! Â Safe to share with the kiddos. Â Gather ’round!
I really enjoy sharing this article and photos with my sons for several reasons. Â First, he’s a guy in ballet. Â That alone takes guts. Â What a great example of following your interests! Â Second, he started ballet at the age of four, and loved it so much that he overcame a lot of industry prejudice in order to stick with it. Â He obviously works incredibly hard at his craft.
This video shows Fabrice Calmels and Julianne Kepley dancing The Dream. Â Beautifully done. Â Now, I will admit, your kids might only be interested for a couple minutes. Â It’s pretty mellow. Â Still, let them take a couple minutes and see some beautiful ballet, ok? Â Leave a comment and let me know how they liked it.
Welcome to the Enrichment Lifestyle Blog! I'm so glad you're here. :) I'm Erica Johns, and I love to encourage homeschool moms and help them enjoy more of the beauty of the arts in everyday life.
About me: I started my homeschooling journey in 1997 and graduated the last of my six children in 2021. Amidst all the hard work, crazy days, uncertainty, and lost pencils, what I think we really gained was the gift of a lifetime: TIME TOGETHER. So awesome! Click my pic to learn more.
