Art Appreciation lessons can be started with very young children.  They can be as simple as displaying beautiful artwork around your home.  Start with your favorite artists and share them with your children.  Talk about what you see in a painting and ask your children to tell you what they really like about it.  Art can enrich our lives as much as music and great literature.   ~Katrina Lybbert~

Shannon Rollman-Reilly has compiled some suggestions for art appreciation lessons on the following artists.  Thank you, Shannon, for sharing you ideas with the LotW email list and for your permission to post them on this site.  Her ideas can be adapted to any artist you wish to study.  Enjoy!
