I do love the good menfolk of this world- but things still ain't equal out there and until they are, a little awareness, and promotion, is due. Ergo, I will tweet an example of work from one #WomanArtist a day from the book. After that, gentle reader, I will tweet your suggestions if you send a link exemplitive of the artist's oeuvre.
Last, If you are a Woman Artist on Twitter, @ me "I am a #WomanArtist" and I will RT and include you on my list: @cjn212/womanartist.
★ Update/clarification: I am highlighting and listing women in the profession of Fine Arts.
With the exception of museum-quality work, I do not plan to include Crafts or Graphic Design.
★ Update/confession: after arguing over on Jerry's page about the representation of women in the arts I realized that I was playing into the boy's club mentality by omitting traditional women's work. Craft is back in. So sorry crafters.
