Turtle Power

Oh, remember back to the days of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? With this famous green foursome making a smallish comeback with their major motion picture a few years ago, turtles on the half shell have once again resurfaced on the elementary school scene.

As an art history major and an elementary school teacher, I find it amusing to see that these notable names are ingrained in children's brains as turtles first, and revolutionary artists second. Funny enough, these pie charts are actually pretty correct in assessing the fame and influence each "turtle" brought to the history of art, as well as providing an entertaining visual reference point.
