Contest Winner! Masters & Pupils

Congratulations to Jeff Wand of Texas for correctly identifying ALL twenty-one painters in the last contest, and also the seven teachers responsible for shaping those pupils. It's no surprise that Jeff, who is a video game artist, was a pupil himself of one of the artists whose work is pictured, Glen Orbik, of the California Art Institute. Jeff didn't fall for any of the traps I set, including Row 6, in which all three pupils were students of R.H. Ives Gammell, but two were also students of Richard Lack. Great job, Jeff, and I hope you enjoy the books!
