art history

here are some writings that i have done for my art hisitory classes.  click on the titles to download and read the papers:

William de Morgan: a paper that I wrote about the ceramic artist Wiliam de Morgan for my modern ceramics art history class with Michele Fricke.  Probably my favorite paper so far, mostly because of what/who I got to write about.
