For Christmas, my wife gave me a subscription to the MasterClass (www.masterclass.com ) where Annie Leibovitz is teaching about photography. It is an AWESOME class, and I'm getting lots from it. There are many other MasterClasses, and each is $99, or one can take as many as desired for $180/yr.

It occurred to me that some of our truly great artists could provide similar training. I'm thinking of people like Bonnie Klein and David Ellsworth (to name but a few of the oh so many). People who would discuss their approach to the art behind their work, not tools or techniques.

Is this something that others would pay for ? If it is, I think the AAW could lead the way for this great art form !
