If you are an art collector looking to learn about as many artists as possible, you’ve come to the right place. Our newest column, Artists of Note, turns the spotlight on contemporary artists from the West and beyond—both emerging artists and established ones—who are worth your attention. In this section you’ll meet artists from all walks of life, with styles ranging from realism to impressionism to abstraction in the plein-air, landscape, still-life, western, and sculpture genres. Here we’ll give special attention to the works these artists create with numerous images of their artwork. Art collectors will recognize some of these artists and also take note of new artists that are on the rise.
