Success Stories From Famous Artists

Grayson Perry, Turner prize winner 2003

I really love hearing stories about the artist behind the art. Where artists come from and how they gain recognition are just as important as the media they use and where they show.

I just came across a story from the London Times that tells how some leading artists started their careers. Read about how Sue Webster, Grayson Perry, Michael Landy, David Shrigley and others got their start.
