I always thought that it actually looked so conducive to learning, compared to the usuall Brit school standards, at least in terms of architecture & environment. Once, I had to go inside for some reason, don't remember now. I was so impressed!Icarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08516491146437398690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-1164071895911222102006-11-20T19:18:00.000-06:002006-11-20T19:18:00.000-06:00Holy Moses, it's 2AM here!

I remember the good old days, say some 50 years ago, when I was the only one commenting on your blog.<BR/><BR/>You have arrived!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I have never taken an art class. Unbelievable, come to think about it. After all these years as a student, I haven't registered for Art 101 even once. And I'm interested in it.<BR/><BR/>What's wrong with me?Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01128667894664895537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-1164069489124613772006-11-20T18:38:00.000-06:002006-11-20T18:38:00.000-06:00Beautiful artwork.

My former school has so many talented teachers. (and students, too!)<BR/><BR/>And, Miles, one of my favorite former Headmasters took a position at the International American School in London a number of years ago, but unfortunately died before he was able to make an impact on the school. Is this the same school perhaps that you described??Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-1164062619991617512006-11-20T16:43:00.000-06:002006-11-20T16:43:00.000-06:00My thanks for your good wishes, Kate.

I have to tell you that the first thing I thought when I saw the school exterior was that it is so similar to the buildings of the A.S.L - the American School in London, St. John's Wood, just round the corner from the Abbey Road studios (Beatles recordings & all that). An obviously very well appointed high school, compared to its Brit cousin about 300 yards away. So that was all very evocative for me, as we lived in Abbey Road next to the famous crossing. And we used to listen to G. Keillor reading his Lake Wobegone on BBC radio at that time, loving every minute. Funny to see him again in your bookshop pic. Nice, though.Icarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08516491146437398690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-1164053695975504052006-11-20T14:14:00.000-06:002006-11-20T14:14:00.000-06:00Nice place, Kate.

My professor suggested, at the end of the class, that I reconsider. <BR/><BR/>I haven't painted much since, though I still feel the call. I often find myself standing before paintings, considering how they did it. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for this walk into the gallery. It's a great spot for study.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273873865160002759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-1164004810945661042006-11-20T00:40:00.000-06:002006-11-20T00:40:00.000-06:00I would love to c'mon in.
