"The person with creative literacy — a basic understanding of the mental, emotional, and sociological tools used for creative thought and communication — is able to find purpose and apply meaning to her world rather than having meaning handed down and purpose assigned to her."

Why creativity may be the only skill of value in a post-work world

Happy birthday to a great painter.

Happy birthday to Édouard Manet, born on this day in 1832. In a review of the 1846 Salon, poet and critic Charles Baudelaire urged artists to depict "the heroism of modern life." Manet embodied Baudelaire's ideal painter of contemporary Paris. Emperor Napoleon III ordered the renovation of Paris under the direction of Baron Haussmann, and early in the 1860s the slum where Manet located his studio was being razed to accommodate the planned broad, tree–lined boulevards that still characterize the city.

In "The Old Musician," Manet represented a strolling musician flanked by a gypsy girl and infant, an acrobat, an urchin, a drunkard, and a ragpicker—individuals the artist might have observed near his studio. The seemingly casual gathering is composed of the urban poor, possibly dispossessed by Haussmann’s projects. Do you see this portrayal as unbiased? Why or why not?

Anyone want to take evening pottery classes at Brunswick Community College's Southport campus? I've been waiting for years to get back in a studio setting. Now that I have time, they need more students in order to hold the class. No experience needed - just lots of fun!
