!Art is Everywhere! Welcome to my Art Blog! This year I'm teaching Art I, Art 2, Pre-AP Art 2, Sculpture 1 and Pre-AP Sculpture 2 to 9th & 10th grade high school students. There is never enough time in class to cover all of the art I want to, so this Blog can keep you in touch with the adventure I have outside of class. Check it out and follow the path...

07/08 Academic Decathlon Art Selection #9
Mary Cassatt is a favorite artist. Officially a member of the Impressionists, she painted this piece "The Boating Party" in 1893. She loved painting women and children in the theme of mother and child. Now, to tell you the truth, I'm not sure WHY this piece is considered to be a piece of art for the Civil War?!? Can any of you come up with an idea? Seriously!
