From Andrea Mulder-Slater: "I provide readers with entertaining and informative articles, facts and tidbits on the art of the ages. From my early memories of viewing the art of the masters up close and personal, to teaching children and adults about the lives of the great ones, I have, and always will be an art history geek. I am also an information junkie and as such, I guarantee you the best in historical links and resources."
