When you think about the  history of art, what do you think about? P aintings and sculptures?  Do you ever think about the beauty industry? How we decorate and adorn our bodies is also a form of art that dates back centuries.  Visit a museum. Check out exhibits on clothes, shoes, jewellery,  make-up.  What is deemed beautiful has a lot to do with culture and time period. What did "beauty" look like in Victorian England?

life is a classroom and experiential learning  is the primary teaching method

word of advice

beware the sweet talkers the "love you forever" types:  they're all  gumdrops and lollipops  hot chocolate  and marshmallows   butterscotch syrup  and ice cream a sugar crash  is bound to happen.
