Name That Artist


I'm starting a new series not too unlike the old TV game show from the 1950s called Name That Tune, in which a song, or part of one, was played and contestants competed to see who could blurt out the name of the song first. I can't offer any prizes but I'd be happy to post the names and photos of those getting all ten artists correct. All works are by world renown artists of various eras--artists every artist should know--however some of the art depicted may be relatively obscure or not typical of the artist's usual work. Please supply first and last names of the artists (correct spelling counts). If you're good, you'll recognize the artists based on style, content, or the clue accompanying each work. If not, you'll have to dig a little (watch where you shovel the dirt, Google hates Dogpile.)
