Imagine going on a tour of a world-class art museum with a talented and insightful curator. But instead of just focusing on the history, technique, and cultural significance of each piece, you have the opportunity to reflect on the spiritual aspects of the works, examining their religious significance and concentrating on the transcendental meaning conveyed by the artist. This is what you’ll find in this exquisitely produced book. It features fifteen pieces of art relating to the topic of Christmas, with an extended reflection on each piece. The commentary is meditative, more reflection on the spiritual nature of the paintings’ subject than art critique. Sister Wendy writes with the deft hand of one who is formed in spirituality, art, and critical thinking. Her imagery is lush, creating a landscape where the sacred and profane live in comfortable coexistence through the medium of painting. For spiritual seekers and lovers of art, this book will offer a unique journey into the experiential nature of a well-rounded faith.

Art Workshop for Children is not just another book of straightforward art projects. The book's unique child-led approach provides a framework for cultivating creative thinking and encourages the wonder that comes when children are allowed to freely explore the creative process and their materials. As children work through these open-ended workshops, adults are guided on how to be facilitators who provide questions, encourage deep thinking, and help spark an excitement for discovery. Children explore basic materials and workshops that use minimal supplies, and then gradually add new materials to fill the art cabinets as well as new skills and more complex workshops. Most workshops are suitable to preschool-aged children, and each contains ideas for explorations and new twists to engage older or more experienced artists. Interspersed throughout are sidebar essays that introduce perspectives on mess-making, imperfection, the role of adult, collaborative art, and thoughts on the Reggio Emilia method, a self-guided teaching philosophy. These pieces underscore the value of art-making with children, and support the parent/teacher/care-giver on how to successfully lead, question, and navigate their children through the workshops to result in the fullest experiences.

Young children are encouraged to explore, dream and imagine through magical rhymes and lively paintings. Every illustration is created from original paintings by Dana Cargile. Artist Statement by Dana Cargile: "I create fine art paintings using oil, acrylic, mixed media and watercolor. My style is impressionistic that utilizes bright contrasting colors. I paint landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, abstracts, animal and human portraits. I paint images in vivid color that I hope others will connect with. I paint with all the feeling in my heart to send a message to my viewer. My goal is to draw the viewer in to study my work to find hidden images. I make art to leave a piece of myself behind on this earth for my loved ones." danacargile.art.com Dana Cargile's Artist Bio Over 30 years ago, as a young girl in fifth grade, Dana Cargile began painting under the tutelage of her grandmother, Wauzelia Shelley. Wauzelia, an accomplished artist, travelled around Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City selling landscape paintings out of the trunk of her car. Her home was filled with art, some of it hers, some of it traded from other artists and some from workshops. "She was my first painting instructor, and the inspiration to be an artist came from her," said Dana. Dana later received her formal art education from Southwest Museum of Art in Midland, TX, Baylor University, and workshops in Jackson, MS and Tyler, TX. Dana attributes much of her painting style to the Deep South where she lived for over 14 years. She frequently visited New Orleans to study art, and this contributed to the loose, painterly and impressionistic qualities in her own work. Now an art teacher, Dana has experience teaching young people and adults. She also taught art to 6th through 12th graders at The Brook Hill School in Bullard, TX. Today, Dana teaches art to Tyler Junior College students. Not only is Dana an art teacher, but she is a practicing professional artist. She regularly submits to juried art shows and is an active participant in Tyler's Art Scene. She was the illustrator for "Pet Fairy," a children's book, and she creates art for church bulletins distributed nationwide by Anchor Wallace Publications. Dana is also active in promoting nonprofits through her art. Recently she served as the Children's Artist for Cattle Baron's Little Wrangler's, and worked with oncology children to create paintings to fundraise for the American Cancer Society.
