Artist, writer, and illustrator Mike Venezia has created a mural for the Naperville (Illinois) Art League. Dedicated last month, the mural features many of history’s greatest artists along with their famous works of art.
Mike Venezia’s popular series of biographies are the basis for the video adaptations produced by Getting To Know, Inc.
In the picture, you can see Mike standing with Faith Ringgold in front of her cartooned version on the mural. Paul Klee paints and fiddles along side.

We congratulate Getting To Know, Inc. on their latest release:
Getting To Know Drawing Media is a great introductory video for young, aspiring artists. It demonstrates and explains many of the drawing tools they can use to create their own artworks.
There are a lot of examples, both child-created and by the great masters. The content is nicely paced and filled with humor.
