Last week Bones Jones came up from the cellar to teach his annual\u00a0anatomy and proportion lesson. This is a great way to have fun and learn a lot about human structure. \u00a0When anyone questions repeating a lesson\u00a0year after year, I always ask them: How many sunflowers did Van Gogh paint? How many water lilies did Monet do? It’s so cool to see students’ progress as the years go by. Here are Emma P’s Bones Jones chronologically from 2014-2019. \u00a0These pictures speak for themselves about the value of practice towards mastery.<\/p>\n
