Improvements

Here is a list of improvements you can make to this article Ryan Vesey Review me! 03:47, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Take a look at MOS:LEAD and use that to reformat the lead section. The lead section should summarize the content of the article.

Awards/Honors

I'm certain that more awards and honors can be found.
These should be in chronological order.
Now that I think of it, Awards and honors may be a better title .
Why did she receive these awards?
Can the sentences be rewritten? Something like "she became a Guggenheim Fellow in 2011" then give a reason why. Who presents her with the honor?

Education

Move the education section to before Awards/Honors
What are the dates that she received her MFA and BFA?
Again, these should be in chronological order with BFA coming before MFA
Is there anything interesting about her education that can be added? Did she do anything important while in school?

Works

I'll get to this later

References

Replace bare url's using {{Cite web}} see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for how to do this. It is easiest to use the refToolbar to do this. There is a 6 minute video that explains how to use it.
Use ref name to combine references that use the same source. See Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for how to do this. The refToolbar will make this easier.

External Links

Move any possible external links to inline.
Create titles for the references, rather than bare urls. This can be done by typing [URL.com TITLE OF URL]

Miscellaneous

An infobox can be created for this article. Try {{Infobox person}} {{Infobox artist}} may work too.
Some type of a life section should be created. When was she born? Information about her marriage can be moved there.
