By introducing art theory, practice, and history in a single volume, this book aims to draw students into a new or expanded awareness of the visual arts. The goal is to engage readers in the process of realizing their own innate creativity.

Their vision and spirit have touched hundreds of thousands of students who have studied ARTFORMS. Bound into every book: Discovering Art 2.0 CD-ROM.
