Hello and Welcome

This blog is about art in its broadest sense.  It seeks to explain how art can stimulate the intellect, raise visual awareness, impact emotions, impart beauty and enhance the quality of life.  Monthly posts may focus on specific exhibitions or events or concern some aspect of the various manifestation of things described as art.  

As a trained art historian, I have been looking at art for over forty years.  The more I looked, the more I realized that art is always talking about art.  The more seen, there more interest and enjoyment.  This writer hopes to help readers understand the how to of looking and stir their enthusiasm for this thing called art.
