What we have now does a dozen things reasonably well… but helping students learn isn’t one of them. Thankfully, I recently came across a model of teaching that REALLY works! My Jiu Jitsu club. I joined up at the beginning of October. And now, after two months, I figured out what they do so well. And a lot of the things could be transf

I know it isn’t abstract but I do think these paintings are beautiful, and as it’s his birthday here you go. “Each day I go to my studio full of joy; in the evening when obliged to stop because of darkness I can scarcely wait for the morning to come…My work is not only a pleasure, it has become a necessity. No matter how many other things I have in my life, ifI cannot give myself to my dear painting I am miserable.” –William Bouguereau “One has to seek Beauty and Truth, Sir! As I always say

Happy Thanksgiving, Denver! - (USA)
In the spirit of the day, and in honor of Denver turning 150 years old this month, I'm thankful that I live in the city of Denver and that Denver is such a great city in which to live. I'm thankful that Denver is an optimistic, progressive city. Whether it is due to our perpetually sunny skies and gorgeous mountain backdrop, or our inferiority complex about not being good enough of a city (probably a combination of both), Denver constantly strives to become a better place. We've been blessed wi
