Testimonials “I have used Barbara's art media lessons in the 19 years I have taught with her in CVUSD Independent Study. Over that time she developed lessons that our students could successfully use working independently. To now have those lessons incorporated into one volume allows our students to follow a curriculum where they enthusiastically grow in ability and where a teacher without an art education can successfully guide them. It is an incomparable teaching tool!
“Barbara Shannon's book, Exploring Art Media , was created to give “home schoolers”, or those who are educated through an independent study program, the skills to learn art. Her book gives detailed, step-by-step instructions to help a student develop a personal artistic style with easy to follow examples. Not only is Exploring Art Media filled with multi-media lessons, but it has an assessment rubric and follows State of California 's art standards as well. My students are enjoying and having a positive learning experience, with Exploring Art Media . This book is a much needed teaching tool for anyone who wants to learn specific lessons in art without having to pay a teacher or take a class. It's a creative, easy to understand, and a helpful teaching tool.”
"This book is the goal of every art teacher. It is effectively designed to aid the teacher's efforts to allow students to experience a studio art class(es) that is creative, individual, and stimulating. Open any page and the result will be 'I can do this and I can be creative while learning the how to's of Visual Arts.' As a Visual Arts teacher of 36 years I must say "Hurrah!" finally a book for the advanced or beginning art teacher, as well as the advanced or beginning art student. This book is an inspiration for all aspects of art education. I bought it. I read it. I am using it."
