Join lifelong art lover and museum fan Karen Jackson as she shares in vivid detail what she sees and discovers when she slows down to look at a work of art for minutes instead of seconds. Then you'll find out the history, mystery or controversy behind the work or the artist! Monthly episodes are only about 10 minutes. The show is for all art lovers—from beginners to longtime fans and the visually impaired. No jargon, just an easy-going, sometimes irreverent look at works in Washington DC's world-class museums. Slow down, see more, avoid the overwhelm!
