a short list of things we have been talking about this week
We have been having so much fun with Colin Page's coloring book pages, that we wanted to share two other coloring pages from the NYTimes to keep you busy: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/03/23/opinion/covid-coloring-activity.html and https://static01.nyt.com/packages/pdf/arts/27COLORINGBOOK.pdf
Appreciating this idea of the resilience of artists in this dark time. "“Darwin said that survival depended on those “most adaptive to change.” Boom! That’s what art does, maybe better than anything!” https://www.vulture.com/2020/03/art-galleries-and-museums-in-the-time-of-coronavirus.html
Our friend and artist Antonia Munroe has a tea paper collage craft to share: https://newbackend.thepagegallery.com/blogfiles/files/TEA%20PAPER%20COLLAGE.pdf
Google’s Art Camea allows you to zoom in on the brushstrokes from thousands of paintings. It is a fun rabbit hole. Try it here with George Bellows painting Men of the Docks: https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/men-of-the-docks-george-bellows/3AELCGI0WHIKsw
We really enjoyed this podcast featuring artist Zoey Frank, who will be showing work with Page Gallery this summer: https://zoeyfrank.com/news/2017/11/15/podcast-interview-with-john-dalton
