art (education) history?

[lauradi7dw]

Flo was here for a visit. I hauled the boxes of little kid art down from the attic for her to go through. I have a few keepsakes, but a lot of the elementary school art is now in the recycle bin. The pre-school stuff is mostly in the trash can, because much of it is basically glue with paper stuck to it (that's a slight exaggeration). And glitter. I'm currently wearing a headband with what I presume are mouse ears, but it doesn't fit very well, and it will probably end up trashed too. I presume tiny children painted on cave walls, and drew with sticks in the ground, and molded stuff out of mud, but do we actually know what kind of artsy projects small children did in the middle ages, for example?

Oh! of course! I didn't even have to look it up - just the mention of kids and Novgorod brings it to mind.
The spam thing is nonsensical, but I don't know how to figure that out. Every time I post to eegatland's LJ page it goes into her spam, she fixes it, and then it happens again.
