Leaning
Post Productions is a partnership of Laurie and Colin Greenly. Laurie is the brain behind ArtSite and ArtWebsite. Colin has spent his life creating
works of art.
 Laurie Greenly is
an interactive media developer, a former award winning public school
art teacher, speaker at conferences and related media presentations,
and president of Leaning Post Productions. Her first CD-ROM "Ideadisc" was
a winner of a National Educational Media Network Gold Apple Award of
Excellence. She has since created "ArtSite"
and "ArtWebsite".
The
idea for ArtSite came from Laurie's work with her own students.
She found that they were truly inspired by both contemporary and
historic art as well as the contributions artists have made to world culture.
By learning through art, students were able
to model their own work after great works of art instead of relying on their own limited knowlege of popular
culture. Students also started to make historical and cultural connections between art and other subject areas.
ArtWebsite was inspired by Laurie's collaboration with The Kennedy Center's website ArtsEdge. "IdeaWeb" was one of the first online student galleries and featured not only her students' artworks, but also inlcuded a description of what inspired the works. Laurie found that students take a great deal
of pride
in
seeing
their efforts online and that the Internet can be a very effective tool in gaining community support for the arts.
 Colin Greenly is an artist who has taught all
ages, a former Dana Professor of Fine Arts at Colgate University, and
has been a visiting artist at several colleges,
universities, and museums.
