INCREDIBLE ART RESOURCES

Suggested list of artists for research

These were selected because they are included in the middle school curriculum at some point in 6th, 7th or 8th grade. Other popular/master artists pages have already been done. You may select another artist not on this list with teacher approval. Only one student per artist. I have removed names of artists already posted to our site -- however you may do one of those if you wish.
