Curators Quotes

“In the spirit of being a reflective practitioner of ourselves we must notice your own behavior as an educator and realize how it influences other.

And they certainly have their opinions and criticisms, and the always ask, "How would I have made this, or how would another artist make this?”
― Stroud Marion Boulton
