Since moving to Los Angeles I have been working for Art Muse, an organization who lead educational experiences in museums and galleries across the city. It has been a pleasure to teach from so many different Los Angeles based collections, and to reconnect with periods in art history from Neolithic and Bronze Age Greece to Impressionism. This is just a small selection of some of my favorite works that I have included in my tours at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Norton Simon Museum, the Broad, and the Huntington. Having the opportunity to explore these collections one after the other is like walking through art history. It is fascinating to see how quality of line and form changes across time.
