A Christmas Carol (Stave Two)

J.L. Scheuermann over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

Over the span of five posts, I am looking at Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, a wonderful story about the dramatic process to effect one man’s complete change of heart. Dickens arranged the novella into five chapters or staves, as he labeled them. “Stave” has its roots in the word “staff,” as in a musical […]

Art as a Language Made Visible: the Art of Gregg Shorthand

Stacey Mandell over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

Art is about sharing the way we experience the world. Art brings us together and allows us to communicate on a different level. When people think about communication, they generally think about speech, but other means exist. Art is a visual means of communication, and my artwork is language made visible, art that speaks to […]

He was walking across his living-room when it happened. Of course many wouldn’t believe him when he spoke of it later. They’d just smile, nod their heads, “Really?

McDonald’s v. Wendy’s

Matt Otey over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

The ginger-topped, possessive mascots battled for my diabetes today. In one corner you have a clown that scares me half to death and in the other is Ronald McDonald.  Wendy’s skill set begins and ends with bringing the 1-2 punches to Twitter like a girl who wears pigtails to spite pigs and I don’t even […]

The Invaluable Nature of an Arts Education

Emma Nicholson over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

As children, we draw pictures to tell stories. The scribbles, lines, and outside-the-line coloring seem merely arbitrary; a dog next to a house with a tree, a stick figure creation, or the classic unproportional family portrait. We come home from school covered in marker ink and with heads full of stories. We sing songs to […]
