Behold The Beauty
This book is part of an art curriculum written from a Reformed, Christian perspective. The arts are a definitive part of this education. Even as math, science, and history show us the power and wisdom of God in creation, so the arts provide the opportunity for close observation of all his works. But the arts contain an added dimension as well. They provide a studied manner in which to respond in praise of God's works, whether by music, poem, picture, or appreciation of such works by others. To respond in this way is the joy of the child of God. The lessons in Behold the Beauty are written with a view toward equipping the student to see the glory of God, especially in creation, and to praise him for it. The objective of each lesson focuses on specific aspects of the elements of art and the principles of design. The elements of art are the building blocks of composition. They include line, shape, texture, color, form, and value. The principles of design guide how the elements are to be used. They include unity, focal point, variety, contrast, balance, movement, rhythm, pattern, proportion, and perspective. Because the child of God desires to see the glory of his Maker in creation, the lessons also place a strong emphasis on observation. Expression, or how art communicates, is treated as well, along with some art history.

Their Portraits in My Books
George Gissing's books, published during the last two decades of the nineteenth century, are memorable for their portraits of women. Only a few women played active roles in his life, but those who did exerted a lasting influence. In each of his novels he portrayed women vividly and with unerring realism. He worried, in fact, that some might see themselves in his books and rebuke him. His portraits of women are warm and human, revealing an essential sympathy that makes them timeless. An important feature of his novels, his feminine portraiture is worth careful study.

The Adjacent Possible
For thousands of years before the written word, humans learned about their ancestors and the world around them through story, passed down through the generations. Art predated the written word, and has been a source of story from the first prehistoric cave paintings onwards. On the heels of Nancy Hillis' bestselling book The Adjacent Possible, this guidebook animates the science of creativity through artists' stories about embracing the unfolding of art. This is poised instability- the pivot point between creation and collapse. This is where innovation thrives. This is the art and science of the possible- A world of continuous creation. This book will: connect scientific concepts with artistic practice to understand the nature of surpriseilluminate the creative journey of discovery through artists' storiesbuild artistic confidence through reflections and creativity exercises Over 20 practicing artists share stories of transformations in their own lives and art, and how they benefitted personally from principles described in The Adjacent Possible. Each artist forged their own path to a life of exuberant creativity. Their stories contain lessons and wisdom on how to find your own path.
