    Artistic Pursuits

    Artistic Pursuits is a series of courses that covers art appreciation, art history, artists, and skills. The emphasis on each area shifts from book to book. Throughout the lessons, students work on their own projects with various art media. While there is an underlying Christian worldview, it isn’t overtly presented until the junior and senior high level in articles about artists and the cultures of their times.
