Using Art to Make Art

I'm excited to teach Art History this year, and have especially enjoyed Wendy Libby's Using Art to Make Art (orginally published as Using Art to Create Art). I like to pair her book with Discovering Great Artists: Hands-On Art for Children in the Styles of the Great Masters by MaryAnn Kohl and Kim Solga.


I'm really pleased to share that MaryAnn Kohl's book is now available online as a FREE PDF from Bright Ring Publishing! This is a fantastic resource!!
