    I will be leading a CM style art appreciation homeschool group. My contribution will be the picture study. This site has been so valuable to me as I gather information about Cassatt. It is my go to resource now for our art study. I plan on using your other links on Monet and Audubon too! Thanks for all your work.

    What a wonderful resource, both for homeschoolers and for those with an interest in learning more about Cassatt. I really liked the personal touch you and your lovely daughter added to this.

    My sons are adults and we did not homestudy. But, this looks like a rich resource for teaching children art appreciation.

    We're studying Cassatt in January. This is an excellent resource (as usual!) I'm going to add it to my January's Artist sidebar.

    Thanks for taking the time to put together such wonderful helps!

    I was right...HA! Excellent lens. Makes me feel like doing some sketching. Do you think my stick figures will one day be famous?

    Great page!!! We haven't studied Mary Cassatt by herself, but we did study her along with the Impressionists. I searched my site for "cassatt" and found 3 entries (http://alexml.blogspot.com/search?q=cassatt).

    One of them is a Cassatt we saw in Colorado.

    The 2nd one shows "We also talked about how Mary Cassatt was greatly influenced by Japanese prints. She even had her own printing press! So, we made some prints by etching into some kind of foam paper with a stylus, painting the foam paper one color, and then making a print."

    And, the 3rd included some Impressionist resources.

    I want to study Cassatt all by herself after reading your page! :-)

    Hi Jimmie

    Our Cassatt study was one of our favourites! You can go and see what we did at http://www.fun-learning-activities-for-children.com/cassatt.html if you like.

    Lovely lens! I am going to see if my two can pick out the Cassatt tomorrow. :-)

    Blessings
