Thanks for resharing! I’ve always enjoyed Rothko and this is the first time I’ve read a succinct summary of his journey to the color field abstracts we love so much.

Is there a link available to his article about teaching children?

I have not found one but you might want to look at "Writings on Art: Mark Rothko" from Yale University Press. Selections are available on Google Books, including the starting pages of "The Scribble Book" which contains some of his ideas about art and children. https://books.google.com/books?id=ZdYLk3m2TN4C
