"....the creative arts, the branches of art scholarship, the various departments of art are to be recognized as an essential part of education, a part without which the individual will be deemed less than educated."
Ben Shahn in The Shape of Content
Reading Ben Shahn makes my work feel supremely important. I am absorbed with what happens in the classroom. I am passionate about facilitating the creative process and all it entails...the quiet attentiveness..the revelation of seeing...and the internal movement into the realm of the brain where the work of creating art flows unhindered.
