Art history timeline

Another commercial break off school projects... today 'we' present Art History Timeline - Pajaree reports from her student room for her own blog (yeah, how convenient!)

I do like art history and am very much interested in the subject, would like to write an article about it, hopefully some day soon...

Aside from a class we had years ago which I don't remember much by now - a bit of reminder here to myself.
