Welcome to the Artist Database

Students are encouraged to actively use this blog to search for any ‘artist connections’ that might inspire their own work. You will find many artists with distinctive #hashtag words to aid your search. Simply type in a word in the top search bar to see what pops up. There are also ‘Fast Links…’ at the bottom of the page to each individual artist.
