I LOVE Art History it is an underestimated subject. In our modern society images have become more and more prevalent and I believe everyone should be visually literate as I genuinely believe it will enrich their lives. I am an animal and art loving Brummie (from Birmingham, England) who now lives on a crop farm with my partner, two children and growing menagerie in Canterbury.
