Like What You See? Tell Your Friends!

We love homeschooling, but, I am very aware of my abilities. Finding an art homeschool curriculum was very important.

Art is definitely not one of my talents! In fact, my 11 year old can already draw better than I can.

But of course, having an art curriculum for homeschooling was important to us. So I thought I would put together a huge list of online art classes for homeschoolers.
