name dropping

Do we decide whether or not we like a piece of art based on the artist's name? Our familiarity with the artist's name? Our familiarity with the artist's work?

artist survey

If you are an artist, please take a moment and fill out this survey. If you are not an artist, please forward it to someone who is. Painters, in particular, are the target. Thanks!
Cheers!
