How have you used her videos and books? Did they add to your art studies? Did your kids enjoy her?

 

I've been interested in her videos for years, but have never used them. I just checked out her book Sister Wendy's American Collection. We plan to read the section on Los Angeles County Museum of Arts and then go for a visit.

 

I'm just wondering how other people have used her materials. :)

We read quite a bit of the Story of painting a couple of years ago. Maybe 10 minute chunks at a time. We collected famous painting postcards when they were little so we would sort out the cards pertaining to that part of the book maybe once a week. Review a bit. We all enjoyed it.

 

I think your idea of going to the museum after reading the book sounds great.

 

I have since discovered that many AP art history courses have great websites complete with pictures of the various time periods. I would probably use those if I was doing it again.
