Artful Advent!

A Fresh Approach to Advent this year ...

What do you most want to celebrate in the rush of the Christmas season?



Isn't it easy to lose sight of Christ in the chaos of Christmas?

Imagine if you could take a break from the busyness ...
Make rich memories with your children ... And best of all ...

Open your children's eyes to the reality of Christ's birth!

Now I know you're busy but ...

What if I showed you a simple way of using resources you already own, to unlock learning you'll be amazed by, during the season of Advent?

Learning that would not only open a world to your children about CHRISTMAS ... but also about ART ...


You've really got me thinking about the lack of art education in our home.   You have some wonderful ideas I had not thought of which are easy to implement and will help us teach the true Christmas story and art!  Yahoo!

WOW! What a great little book! I am amazed at the wealth of information there is and it's not wordy or complicated. I can't wait to use these ideas with my children this coming Advent season.

It makes you think about art in a whole new light ...

"But I've always struggled
to include art in my homeschool!"

Last year over 1500 homeschool parents like you answered our survey about their greatest challenge teaching art at home. 

The number ONE issue we found was (and if this is you, be encouraged that you're not alone!)

No one taught ME art ... so how am I
supposed to teach MY CHILDREN?!

After over ten years of searching I've found some grace-filled answers, and a way of teaching art that is so painless ... and do-able ... You know how it is once you hear something and think ... why didn't anyone tell me that before?!

Using ARTFUL ADVENT! will start you on the road to confidence and success with art in your homeschool.

I will be homeschooling for the first time next year and I truly appreciate the thought provoking applications you've given me for "art class."

I just finished reading Artful Advent. I must tell you that I was very pleased and amazed. You made it so easy to "do" art. Rather than being a dry general piece on art, it was event oriented, and one of my favorite events, I might add.  And it was actually doable.

We live in a very limited space in a tiny RV. there is no room to "do" art other than some simple coloring of pictures. I so appreciate the ideas given here to use something as simple as ... [details edited out!]. You put the information all together in a condensed format that is easy to read and easy to use.

I also appreciate all the links and the checklists you made available.
Thank you so much!

  • Ideas you can apply all year - finally get art into your homeschool!
  • Specific questions to ask - that teach your child to look carefully ... with no guess work for you.
  • The best LIVING books - you may own many of them but you'll be amazed what you can teach from them!
You have given me lots of ideas on how to use the beautiful art books we do have. While we look at illustrations in books, I don't always know how to direct a conversation about the picture with my children.

I like art, but I LOVE books, so I really appreciate the book recommendations. Thanks again for adding pleasure to my busy day.

I have been in an art "rut" lately.  My seven-year-old son has such a fondness for fine art and I'm always looking for ways to keep that fire burning.  Artful Advent! pulled me out of my rut, especially with your suggestions under "Investigative Journalism" as well as the "Checklist of Art Media".  Thank you, Michelle!

  • The greatest resource for explaining the story of Christmas - at your fingertips. I'll show you where!
  • Hands-on learning too - that enhances your understanding of the season.
  • Live links to artists' websites - Let them show your children how they created their pictures.
One thing I liked was the breakdown by age. This saves me time and energy getting all my children involved in something they will enjoy.

This book is very informative and gave me resources I didn't know about. I am a mixed media and book artist who is always looking for ways to incorporate art into our home education.

Thanks for the terrific resource.

I downloaded your Artful Advent! book yesterday, and I really wanted to say
"Thank You!"  I'm a homeschooling mom who is tired of using textbooks and
longing to begin teaching my kids using living books!  As part of that
endeavor, I want to incorporate the beauty of art into our day. 

Your Artful Advent! book brought up so many good ideas!!  I also appreciate your resource lists and Internet links to get me started!  I finally think I can "do art"
now!  I look forward to reading your Art of Seeing book too!

What a lovely publication! You wrote that for people just like me. I don't have an artistic bone in my body. Nor do I have very much knowledge of art history, the masters, etc. Artful Advent was incredibly helpful.
