Happy with Elizabeth Catlett (1915-2012)!
"Catlett was known largely for her sculpture, especially for works such as Homage to My Young Black Sisters (1968) and various mother-child pairings, the latter of which became one of her central themes. She was also an accomplished printmaker who valued prints for their affordability and hence their accessibility to many people. Catlett alternately chose to illustrate famous subjects, such as Harriet Tubman and Malcolm X, and anonymous workers—notably, strong solitary Black women—as depicted in the terra-cotta sculpture Tired (1946). Other notable works include the linocuts Sharecropper (1968) and Survivor (1983) and the lithograph Negro es bello (1968; “Black Is Beautiful”). She remained a working artist into her 90s."

Happy with Georgia O' Keeffe (1887-1986)!
"Georgia O’Keeffe is one of the most significant artists of the 20th century, renowned for her contribution to modern art...She studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Students League in New York, where she learned the techniques of traditional painting. The direction of her artistic practice shifted dramatically four years later when she studied the revolutionary ideas of Arthur Wesley Dow. Dow offered O’Keeffe an alternative to established ways of thinking about art...Through a series of abstract charcoal drawings, she developed a personal language to better express her feelings and ideas."

Happy with Dorothea Lange (1895-1965)!
"Dorothea Lange is one of the nation's greatest documentary photographers. Her respectful empathy for people and her keen ability to communicate the essential elements of the situations she photographed endow her work with unforgettable power. Although best known for her FSA (Farm Security Administration) photographs, she produced other work, including the images of home and family life published in American Country Woman (1964)."

In honor of , this , we're exploring the contributions of influential Black artists. Today we highlight Gordon Parks(1912-2006):
"Known for photojournalism, Gordon Parks also directed major films that told the stories of slaves and mistreated Black Americans. He was born to a farming family in Kansas and his early life was deeply affected by segregation and limited opportunities. Still, he taught himself photography skills, and quickly caught the eye of photography clerks, who helped him find work.
He ended up in Chicago, photographing socialites, fashion, and portraits. He joined the FSA (Farm Security Administration) to document the lives of poor communities. One of his best-known photographs, American Gothic, shows a cleaner named Ella Watson standing in front of the American flag with a mop.
Later, he took photographs for Vogue and Life magazine and published books, before consulting on Hollywood films and moving into directing and producing."
"American Gothic" (1942), Gordon Parks

Are you having any painting classes soon? I would be interested in taking one. Our family reunion had one last year and i enjoyed it,
'Have you ever wanted an exchange student in your family? We have a young man from Thailand who loves music and is coming to U.S. for this school year. Contact local International Cultural Exchange Services (ICES) coordinator Dottie Ridenour at 330.749.8452 or email [email protected] or message me.'
In all the camps my children have been to over the past 19 years, this one was the worst. My middle son has Autism. I am very supportive to any camps that take my son- provide things to help him stay calm, early pick ups, even stay and assist so that he can have that experience. WCA has had my children before, but not in two years since they left a bad taste in my mouth. Well, I decided to sign my 3 boys up for theater camp. I told them that I was available until two if he had any issues. Sue called at 2:10 to tell me my son with autism would not participate, and that he insisted on reading his book. I told Sue that this was how he participated. She explained that it sets a bad example for the other children and they would not be accommodating him anymore. I asked if he was kicked out and Sue said "Of course not, we just need to think of a better plan". My husband spoke to Lynn at pick up and she said she thought it would be better if in the future they were in separate camps (they have always separated kids by age group in the past but we were told they cant do that anymore because of low enrollment). We decided that this was not going to be a good fit for our middle son, since they will not let him read or take breaks if he is overstimulated. When we showed up at camp the next day, my husband was told that he needed to pick which kid would be attending camp. They told him in front of the kids that they wanted my oldest because the other two didn't show as much potential. My husband was overwhelmed with our sobbing 7 year old, When he told me what was wrong, I called the center and spoke to Josh, the president. He never let me speak, constantly cut me off if I tried, called my children "problems", refused to give me information on the board and said everything must go through him. In the end, I still don't have an answer why two of my children were kicked out in less than a day. I felt very uncomfortable leaving my oldest son there. When I went to pick him up, Josh followed me and continued to complain about the children. I again said to name an incident, and he said he didn't know of any but that he was not the teacher. Then as we were leaving he shouted across the parking lot, in front of all my sons friends, and said "You know, good example of parenting. I see where he gets it from". I feel so disgusted. My children are so sad, so embarrassed.
Do you have a teacher that will teach a 4 year old piano?
