This week’s subject: Adventures in art

Cartoons, colorful paintings and construction paper cutouts are all tickets to a journey of imagination for young artists. Twentieth-century American painter Mark Rothko said “Art is an adventure into an unknown world.” This world uses a special language that commuincates through color, images, textures and styles. You can learn to speak this language by looking at other artworks and by creating works of your own. To start on your journey into art, try these links on The Times’ Launch Point Web site.
