I still treasure my art history textbook from college.  That course was pivotol to my creative and professional development.  Read  all about it on my "About" page.  But my beloved  edition of Jansen's History of Art is long out of date, even more so with the recent discovery  of artist Flora Crockett.

The New York Times (no less) has heralded the discovery of  Crockett's colorful and joyous abstract paintings and claims that her work should be in the collections of the Whitney and MoMa.

Anyone interested in art should  learn about Flora Crockett and be familiar with her work.  I dish on it all over at Cloth & Kind.    Look me up.
