Giovanni Boldini was known as the "Master of Swish" because of his flowing style of painting. His paintings and drawings showed his subject in soft-focus; elongated; in movement; alive; and sophisticated. He painted mostly portraits and also landscapes in the naturalistic style of his day; and worked on engravings; with pastels; watercolors and etchings. He became the most fashionable portrait painter in Paris in the late 19th century; with a dashing style of painting which shows some Impressionist influence but which most closely resembles the work of his contemporaries John Singer Sargent and Paul Helleu. Only toward the end of his long life; did his style change; using mainly dark; rich colors.

Theyre guided through the basics while being entertained by the stories of Beethoven Bear and Mozart Mouse. Super for kids who are starting out and are very young. If they in first grade; this series often feels "babyish" to them. I recommend it for pre-K and K.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. SoldBy Judiths Profitable EffortsI love this series. I have taught my grandchildren to play piano using this program. I first bought a bundle of this at a Garage Sale and fell in love with it. I have since continued to buy this for each child. I take them completely through the series and they are able to easily read music and on top of that; they love music.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. and gives her a good sense of accomplishment when she masters each pageBy R. McKnightContinues the series by adding in more 2-hand selections. Works well on building progress for my 6-year-old. It is getting harder; and it challenges her; but its not too much; and gives her a good sense of accomplishment when she masters each page.
