Dear Fred & Kara,

Again I would like to on behalf of the Angel Academy, it’s directors, faculty and students, express our deepest gratitude for your continuing assistance and generosity to all aspiring young artists (and not so young). Without your vision and support both financially and through your wonderful informative website I feel that this new realism would have taken much longer to attract the attention it now has.

I would particularly like to thank you for awarding our students, Kresten Smedemark and Hayley Brown who were both received Third Place Prizes in your 2011 ARC Scholarship Competition.

my warmest regards as always

Lynne Barton
Director

Copley developed his depth of understanding technique through restoring old master paintings and now incorporates this knowledge with his own creative ability.

William Bouguereau (1825-1905), although well known for his paintings of peasant girls and mythological scenes, has also become one of the most beloved religious painters of all times.

This article discusses five of Bouguereau’s most important religious works.
