About

Artistic Pursuits is an in-depth homeschool art curriculum which includes age-appropriate exposure to art history and art projects in a variety of media.

This book contains 36 projects and can be completed in a year at a rate of three projects per month. Many families choose to set aside one half-day per week for art, but we recommend allowing more time if your child has a special affinity for it or wishes to continue a project beyond the scheduled allotment.

Each lesson contains a brief video, art history reading and an art project. You may choose to read to your children while they are completing the art project, or to play classical music.

The Artistic Pursuits courses require the purchase of materials, most of which are good to have on hand anyway as part of your homeschooling environment. You can purchase all materials used in this book in aggregate at the Artistic Pursuits website, but we have realized some cost savings by purchasing them piecemeal.
