ETV Program

I have been watching Paris The Luminous Years on ETV, and it is a wonderful program about the artists, painters,poets,writers etc. who lived or worked in Paris right at the turn of the 20th century. The program showed how being in Paris had an effect on them as they worked together and had great comraderie with people in all the arts. I have been interested for a long time in the similarities of the creative spirit of all the artistic realms and wish we had more of an interaction of the arts where I live. I would love to just hang out at the local coffee house and discuss painting or poetry or music with my contemporaries. As I have said in previous posts, I have been enjoying two classes on the internet, and I think it is the interaction with and feedback from other artists that makes it so much fun. That is what makes workshops so great, and I hope there will be more of these online classes in the future.
