Art Education

Don’t these pictures make you wish you came to The University of Montana?!  Last night I stayed after Vertebrate Osteology in order to set up this still-life for a few Art Ed. students to come over from the School of Fine Arts and do some practice sketches.  If we had the space available, I would make it a point to keep something like this on permanent display either at the School of FA or within our building in Health Sciences.  A big part of my advocacy for the museum is that it is a facility for every department on campus, not just for science/biological research, but for artists as well!
