Self Portraits

I met Eric Bolander in the summer of 2013 at the Art Academy of Cincinnati. Eric teaches high school art in Lexington, and at the time, I taught middle school in Indianapolis. The next several posts serve as a record of our time spent together in Cincinnati as well as some other fun art related things that happened . . . This is Mr. Bolander's studio. Above is a self portrait he did in oil on a wooden board. Below is one done by Mr. Beal. Both were created while at the Art Academy.

Terracotta Warriors at the Indianapolis Children's Museum

Mr. Beal got to see real-life Terracotta Warriors at the Indianapolis Children's Museum, but unfortunately there was a little mishap.


Bolander: Here is the first challenge. Select a work of art, and break it. Post a photo to our blog and talk about why you chose the piece.

Bolander Cartoon

Here is a portrait of Mr. Bolander drawn by one of his students. Very talented, he must have a good teacher.
