Now on View: Hoosier Salon History & Highlights
We've compiled a list of blog posts highlighting artists who have exhibited throughout the Hoosier Salon's 100 year history. Whether you've seen the exhibition at #fwmoa and want to know more, or now know more and want to see the exhibition, we hope these posts help you find a new favorite Indiana artist!
Art Term Tuesday: Wash
It's wash day at #fwmoa, but we aren't doing laundry; instead, we're looking at artworks that use a wash to create contrast, texture, and color gradients. Learn how to spot this technique then put it to the test with works #nowonvie at #fwmoa.

Playing Favorites: Naomi Vanderleest & Dan Dailey
Walk like a robot! Education Assistant Naomi Vanderleest is #playingfavorites with this Dan Dailey sculpture at #fwmoa. As she leads school tours, she asks her group to show and tell how this figure would move. What do you think?
Treasures from the Vault: James Lavadour
James Lavadour's art process does not paint (or print!) a landscape but, through the act of creation, reveals one. See how he transfers his layering technique from painting to printmaking in this #treasuresfromthevault.
