ABSTRACT
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Currently, women are not represented equally in exhibitions, promotions, workshops, or historical documentation, and they do not receive equal pay (Gardner; Nochlin). The question asked by Linda Nochlin and the Guerilla Girls became the guide for this researcher to seek out answers to the problem, “Why aren’t more Texas female artists considered great?”

PURPOSE OF THE EXHIBITION
The purpose of this study is to survey data and publications about female artists in Texas and apply insights gained to develop design-centric solutions to assist female artists in their artistic endeavors, representation, promotion, and efforts for better compensation. These resources will explore the option of providing personalized templates, files, and promotional media tools to prepare female artists in their future.
