"The Painting Class celebrates my art students involved in their work. Some for the first time are exploring paint and developing images. This was my classroom in 2009.
The connect-the-dots figures on the wall are about me. This kind of coloring book was a favorite of mine as a child. Many years later it all comes together. Picasso said, "that it took him four years to learn how to paint like Raphael and a life-time to paint as a child."
Now in 2020, The Painting Class has a special meaning. It celebrates my African American students. BLACK LIVES MATTER." - Gail Norfleet
