    Fun Fact Friday: Monet’s Color Shift

    November 16, 2018 /

    In honor of Claude Monet’s birthday earlier this week (November 14th), I thought it would be a good time to share a little bit more about him. As Monet got older he began to develop issues with his eyes.  Around age 65 (1905) he began experience changes in his perception…

    October 26, 2018 /

    Did you know that the artist Pablo Picasso’s name was so long?  That must have been a lot to memorize as a kid.  I decided today would be a good day to talk about Picasso as his birthday was yesterday.  Born October 25, 1881, he would have been 137 (he…

    Fun Fact Friday: Devils Tower Pt. 2

    October 12, 2018 /

    Last week I shared about Devils Tower in Sundance, Wyoming and how it was the first national monument in the United States.  Any other fellow grammar nerds out there?  I didn’t mispell Devils Tower during my previous blog post – it truly is D-e-v-i-l-(no apostrophe)s.  Today I’ll talk a little…
