Art Junction

Professional Teaching Artist Craig Roland keeps a blog called Art Junction which is about "ideas, tools, and resources for teaching art and design in a digital age."

On Mr. Roland's terrific site you will find many useful resources and links to things you didn't even know you desperately wanted.

For instance, I followed a link to the monthly column he writes for SchoolArts Magazine and found a mention of the Philips Collection and since they are big on Jacob Lawrence I quickly downloaded one of their Jacob Lawrence migration series worksheets and I was making art before I knew it.

Exhaustive and fun.

Craig Roland's Art Junction.

It's a place of unexpected intersection.
