Remember that you may also want to consider which of these artists have works in the MFA that you would be able to look at firsthand. (You can search the MFA website to check: http://www.mfa.org/search/collections) This is something for all of you to consider as it will really help to be able to see at least one of your artist's artworks in person (to look at brushwork, color, technique, texture, size, etc.)
