Chemistry for the visual arts. How can you not love a school that offers a chemistry class where you learn about acidity through art preservation and get to make your own pigments? Or how about a class in which you learn where history and art collide? Leonardo da Vinci painting The Last Supper some time around when Columbus is setting sail for the Americas. Nothing sticks with you more than making connections like that. Or how about having not just a one period art class, but having sculpture, painting, printmaking and drawing? These were all the classes I had at the Louisiana School for Math Science and the Arts. I don't know what's a better testament to how well the school provided a solid arts education: the fact that I remember so many lessons 23 years later or that 23 years later, I am still a working artist.
