06 · Course objectives
Trace image-making from prehistoric caves and biblical craft through Gothic light, Renaissance perspective, and the modern gallery — and understand how art shapes the world you live in.
Apply biblical principles of craft, beauty, and image — Bezalel skill, common grace, and worship without idolatry — so every looking journal and reading is formation, not decoration.
Build a looking eye and historical frame — from the first artists through Gothic light and Renaissance craft to the modern gallery — so art becomes worship, skill, and culture, not background wallpaper.
Connect beauty to vocation — how artists, patrons, and communities steward craft, and how students can practice seeing with integrity in school, church, and work.
Hold craft without idolatry — Second Commandment tension and beauty that is true and pure — so image-making serves worship rather than replacing it.

“We've received wonderful feedback running the Art History curriculum in our co-op. The chapters are beautifully written and connect financial concepts to Scripture in meaningful ways. Troy taught several sessions in person to refine the material and make the course truly spectacular. The PowerPoint slides and chapter readings kept our students engaged and eager to learn.”
Julie D.
Founder & Director, Cornerstone Academy
“My son was genuinely excited to learn with Art History. The chapters took him through the history and development of different industries, and he stayed fully engaged from beginning to end, often sharing what he learned at the dinner table. The biblical integration makes every lesson meaningful. Troy's in-person teaching helped make the course exceptional.”
