For this assignment I visited the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts and chose a painting from the 2016 Cumberland Valley Artists Exhibition. The oil on linen painting was titled Professor Quimby and was made in 2014 by Cyd Goodwin. Goodwin appears to be influenced by theatrical plays as most of her paintings revolve around the same subjects/people.

artist but what fascinates me most is relating the work to its context. When I researched, wrote and produced a documentary for the national competition SPoKE on Raphael's 'Transfiguration,' I was able to develop my understanding and love for a work of art which I thought I knew well.
