Ann Telnaes profiled by Jason Chatfield
Artist Spotlight: Ann Telnaes
There aren't enough days in a lifetime to share with you all the artists that have inspired me at one time or another, but each week from now I'll be turning my drawing table lamp and spotlighting an artist you might like if you enjoy my work.
Some of these artists are friends, others are heroes, some are (bafflingly) both. Some are well-known, some are just starting out their careers. I hope you enjoy their work as much as I do.
