An Art History Course Covering The Painting and Sculpture of the Italian Renaissance

UPDATE: Recordings-Only Option is Available!

(Live classes are FULL)

Join me as I delve into my first ever "Art History" course.

In many ways this will feel like familiar TTA: reading and personally connecting to art will be the foundation. Then, we will add the element of getting to know each individual artists' spirit. Finally, the added, "art history" element will be to answer this question: "What would it be like to experience the art of Botticelli, Michelangelo, and Raphael as if we were living in their time?"

In this course, we will be trying to grasp not only the spirit of each artist, but the spirit of the culture that made it possible for these artists to thrive. We will be getting to know famous and not-so-famous artists and artworks. And we'll be trying to deeply answer the question: how would the new, great artworks have astonished and inspired you were you living during the Renaissance?

Author, Teacher and Tour guide
For the past fifteen years I've given tours at art museums from the Louvre to the Legion of Honor. In 2006 I started teaching art appreciation to elementary and junior high students And in the summer of 2009, I decided I needed put my ideas down on paper, and so I wrote Touching The Art. Today, I teach literature and art appreciation online with Literature at our house, I give tours all over the U.S., and recently published my second book, Stories in Paint.
