Welcome to my web site, where I'm glad to bring to people what I've learned from Aesthetic Realism, the education founded in 1941 by the American poet and critic Eli Siegel.
          
           I'm proud to have seen that Aesthetic Realism is true: it explains the human mind and the world we are in with new respect and scientific exactness. Studying it enables individual men and women to be fully what they hope to be!

What Aesthetic Realism Is
I grew up near Cincinnati and majored in English Literature at Denison University; moved to New York City and worked as a researcher for a news magazine and had an antique store. Of course, there is much more to tell, which I do in seminar papers published here.

          Then at 27 I began to study Aesthetic Realism, which is based on these principles stated by Eli Siegel: 

1)   The deepest desire of every person is to like the world on an honest or accurate basis. 

2)   The greatest danger for a person is to have contempt for the world and what is in it....Contempt can be defined as the lessening of what is different from oneself as a means of self-increase as one sees it.

3)   All beauty is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves.

     Here is a seminar paper based on these principles presented recently with Carrie Wilson and Karen Van Outryve at the Aesthetic Realism Foundation in New York City: Can A Woman Be Both Serious and Lighthearted?
