Additional Art (Artist and Art History) Resouces

Below are some of the resources in our Home Library that focus on Artist Study and Art History:

The Annotated Mona Lisa: A Crash Course In Art History From Pre-Historic To Post-Modern
By: Carol Strickland


The Story of Painting (By: H.W. Janson and Dora Jane Hanson) -- an older book, but FANTASTIC !
Art Through The Ages: Sixth Edition (Revised By: Horst de la Croix and Richard Tansey) -- another older book that is well worth having !!


Dover Publications has many of these "coloring books" -- some are period specific, some are artist specific. These are fantastic black and white "outlines" of works that can be colored, painted, and more. We have used MANY of these Dover books through the years, including this one.
