The focus of this self-paced online lesson is to introduce you to two colonial artists that Joan Ross draws from in her exhibition Joan Ross: Those trees came back to me in my dreams.
You will examine information, be asked to share your initial thoughts in open-ended long answer questions and then, towards the end, be quizzed on your memory of what you've studied.
Note that this lesson uses a range of photos. If, for some reason, this quiz does not load the photos, you can access a PowerPoint version on OneNote.
