Studio art classes pose a unique challenge. What if your homework is a drawing inspired by Picasso’s cubism? Or a digital collage using fragments of historical photos? You still need to cite your sources of inspiration, even if you transformed them.
For most essays, the Chicago Manual of Style (Notes & Bibliography) is the gold standard because it handles visual media gracefully.
When referencing a piece of art in your bibliography or works cited list, you generally need the following core details: : The creator of the work. Title of the Work : Usually in italics . Date of Creation : When it was completed.
Artist First Name Last Name, Title of Artwork , Year, Medium, Collection, City, URL (accessed Date).
