Studying Art in Florence
Museum Secrets from the History Channel visited the Angel Academy of Art last summer and filmed part of my workshop there for an episode on studying art in Florence. The episode airs April 4th in Canada. The trailer is here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qu50jhJ-17s&feature=youtu.be

Santa Trinita, Firenze
I wanted to share the beautiful representation of the Trinity over the main entrance to Santa Trinita in Florence. The church itself was constructed between 1258 – 1280. The Trinity (1593-94) was sculpted by Giovanni Battista Caccini and Pietro Bernini, father of Gian Lorenzo.
