Greetings friends, Regarding the following 10 DVD set. A bit pricey, but would seem on general to be of real value to any studio program that actually did life modeling or for a strong art history program in American art. But I've heard the audio and visual quality of this series is somewhat iffy. Anyone care to comment? Perhaps off list? Best, Peter Blank ----------------------------- Peter P.
