The Quest

I see this blog as having three focus areas:

1. Genealogy. Tracing our family history back from our grandmother, Vera Daconta, to Henri Matisse (the famous French painter). This blog will trace our learning experience, trials and tribulations, successes and failures in this endeavor.
2. Matisse. Learning about Matisse, why he is considered great and how we should take the lessons of his life and apply it to our own.
3. Family. This is and should be a family project. Family heritage and honour is important so I am hoping to get as much as our family as possible, including the kids, involved in this project.

So, with those three objectives ... let us begin the quest!!
