Pierre-Auguste Renoir was a French Impressionist painter. Born in 1841, he is widely considered to be one of the leading figures of the Impressionist movement and one of the greatest painters of all time. Renoir's works are characterized by their luminous color, light brushwork, and focus on capturing the fleeting moments of everyday life. He was known for his innovative techniques, such as capturing the effects of light and color in a scene, and his works often convey a sense of joy and lightheartedness.
Over time, Renoir's style evolved from representational images to more abstract and innovative works, and he became a pioneering figure in the Impressionist movement. Today, Renoir's works can be found in major museums around the world, and he remains one of the most famous and beloved artists of all time.

While I was in elementary school, Meet the Masters visited many times and I was in awe by the whole experience. To this day I still think about the lessons I learned and still have my rendition of Van Gogh’s Starry Night. I would love to inspire young students the same way Meet the Masters instructors have inspired me and so many of us.
