I have always been so intrigued with Charlotte Mason’s educational philosophy. We utilize many of her methods in our own homeschool. I am especially fond of her suggested Artist Study method.
I found this incredible site that tells you everything you need to know to teach an Artist Study And there is even a Charlotte Mason Artist Study yahoo group that I am sure you can glean many great ideas.
There are several suggested books you can find at the library or you can find the paintings on line for FREE. Lots of families use free images from the Internet for their artist studies. Two good sites for this are Art cyclopedia and WebMuseum.
I plan on diving into this site when I am planning our school year for 2012-2013.

Thanks for the link! I look forward to looking through it. Over the holiday break I reviewed our plan and decided to commit to an all Charlotte Mason method for our homeschool. I was trying to fit in learning centers at the beginning of the year and go by themes and it was all so overwhelming. Today was our first day back to school with all CM and it was lovely!
