What can I expect from the program?
The program is divided into 3 broad sections: an exploration of Modern Art in Europe, some general history to provide context for changes in art styles in and around Paris; and an introduction to colour theory and art terms.
Each art period module provides you with an introduction, list of the key artists, and discussion about style of art, the artists and their artworks. There are a number of images and slideshows for you to view, and links to videos and some further reading if you are interested.
Please click on individual images in slideshows if you would like to see the image enlarged, and details about the painting. There are also hyperlinks to source documents for terms mentioned which are not discussed in detail.

Why should I pay for the program?
There are lots of different websites where you can read about Modern Art, and there are some free programs you can do as well. So why would you pay for this one?
When writing the program, I had in mind those people who would like to do a face-to-face program, but just don't have access to one, and those people who simply want to be involved in adult education but prefer to study on their own. I've drawn on my own experience with both forms of study to design the program to meet both needs.
Firstly, it's easy to follow, bringing together all the information that provides context for the rise and success of Modern art - historical information, colour theory and art terms, each of the main painting styles, key male and female artists and their exhibitions. You can follow your own learning path, depending on your interest.
It's not about just absorbing information. It's about being informed, challenged and encouraged to think about your responses to the information and artworks throughout the program. It's about both appreciating the context and seeing the detail.
It's about having the opportunity to respond as you become engaged with different aspects of Modern art. Some people prefer to think visually, so there are many drawing exercises throughout the program, as well as a number of written questions, for those who prefer this style of response.
Like all good adult learning programs there is a variety of media; written information, slideshows, lots of images (many not easily found elsewhere), videos and further readings.
And like all good adult learning programs, it's been carefully researched from reliable sources. It's been carefully formatted, so that each section is easily followed, step-by-step.
The purpose of my writing this program was to share my real love and interest in this period of art with others in a way that is really satisfying and engaging for the participants.
Can I get a refund?
You can request a refund within 24 hours if you find it doesn't meet your needs, or in the first week if you have technical problems. Whilst you shouldn't have any problems, there are a large number of images on this website, and they may be slower to load if you have a very slow internet connection.

How do I contribute my thoughts and observations?
Who is this program designed for and do I need high level computer skills?
This program is written in 'Plain English' and is designed to for those who have an interest in Modern European art, but not a high level of knowledge. It should challenge you and encourage you to think about your response to the range of art styles covered in the program.
You should be able to move around the site easily by clicking on the headings, images and other menu buttons. The program doesn't need to be completed in a particular order, but you would probably want to move through the art styles sequentially.
If you have any questions about using the website, just contact the presenter.
What technology do I need?
Because of the size of the program, and the number of images, I recommend that you use either your laptop or PC. You don't need any specific programs - everything can be completed right here on the site (except any drawings or paintings you choose to do).
Who is the Presenter?
