Dear Studio Art Majors,

The studio art faculty created a list of artists that we think is important to your development as an artist. You will need to complete the research on these artists as soon as you can but definitely for ARTS 474: Professional Practices in Studio Art. We hope you will enjoy getting to know these curious thinkers, amazing makers, and astute observers.
