The artist that I chose to research was John Baldessari. He was born June 17, 1931 in National City, California. He is currently still living. I chose to research him becasuse his work catches your eye. He paints black and white pictures then adds color to certain places in the picture to make his work noticable. I also chose to research him because of his creativity. He paints pictures that would probably look beautiful if he didnt add anything else but he still adds circles of color to block out faces such as he did with the woman in the picture. Overall I think his work is unique.
