Welcome to an index page originally designed for my students in recent courses--an experience I deeply enjoyed. I was asked to keep the index page and links, and will do so as long as NBCI detects visitors. I hope these pages are helpful. This page is designed to load and print efficiently. Gerard

About this Instructor:
My views are unique in that I am an experienced college art educator, and experienced in a variety of professional art applications. This gives me a academic foundation, while making me open to the integration of new technologies, and problems in art communications in both art and non-art professions, for the contemporary student.
