Topic: Notes of a Painter

Hi ya'all,

I'd like to introduce this innaugural Bizzard 2010 blog discussion on Matisse's "Notes of a Painter!"

 Just click "Post Comment" below this message to get started, or click view comments and "reply to comments" already posted.

I've invited you all to post your "noteworthy discussion points" on Matisse's "Notes of a Painter" so we don't go cold mentally due to the snow in...  

To all Pennsylvania College of Art and Design students,

 Everyone is required to make at least one initial "Post Comment", and at least one "Reply to Comment" on someone else's post.

Be sure to indicate page number and paragraph so we can read along... if you quote Matisse exactly, use quotation marks.  Don't forget to leave a personal response.

Do everyone the favor of proofreading your posts.

Don't ask me anything about class through this blog... use email instead.

I will be reviewing all posts before they appear so be patient if they don't pop up right away.

 This blog is public, so if you choose to create a user name to protect your privacy on the web (recommended), be sure to tell me which name is yours via private email, so I can give you credit for class. 

You don't have to worry about saying anything awkward because we are all here to support eachother.

Obviously don't be snarky or your post will be deleted.  

enjoy!
