Artist I admire

This makes me supremely happy seeing them all on one page like this. These are the bars and standards that I am trying to reach, I am not looking to recreate their glory, but to find my own style and explore the art field with their knowledge and skill as a guide. I turn to these artists when I am in a slump, or need inspiration or simply need a recharge. You can find so much of what I enjoy in art in this page, as I put the finishing touches on my artist statement for another round of graduate school applications, its nice to be able to stop and enjoy what my perfect museum would look like. There are many more, but at this point in my life and career these are the ones that pop into my head.

Images in Order.
