The painting style of impressionism developed in France in the late 19th century. A somewhat similar style was developed in Spain at the hands of the Valencian painter Joaquin Sorolla. Previously little known outside of Spain, Sorolla is becoming a major figure in European art due in part to a series of expositions in 2023 marking the 100th anniversary of his death. We will discuss the life and art of Sorolla, visit the Sorolla museum in Madrid, and attend the 2023 exposition in Madrid which included a spectacular animated virtual reality display of his major works.

There are actually ways to manage those rocky roads without the negative impact of the lingering stress hormones. AND there are also ways to be freed in order to embrace AWE-to release positive hormones-and feel full of bliss and amazement-simply wonderful!!!
