Cooper


So we went on a fieldtrip to the city of Cooper. We found a lot of history and very friendly people and of course we had our fearless leader with us.

Our Book

So, we've started reading Advice to Young Artists in a Postmodern Era. I have to say that I have read some interesting points. They argue that intelligence is not one-dimensional. I think this is a valid point. As my husband tells me, he is not "book smart" like I am. I tell him that he is smarter than I am in a lot of other areas. We have our own measures of intelligence.
They also discuss the differences in knowledge and understanding. "Work beyond your understanding," is a piece of advice they give to artists. Using problem finding instead of problem solving helps us go one step further in our understanding.
