The Dallas Museum of Art (DMA) has compiled a selection of resources for the study of Texas artists, on its mobile-friendly website. One such resource is a searchable joint digital collection, Texas Artists: Paintings, Sculpture, and Works on Paper. Partially funded by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), the database includes contributions from Southern Methodist University, the Dallas Museum of Art, and the Dallas Public Library, adding up to over 1,000 digital objects. There are also a couple of handy lists that can be used as searching aids for exhibitions at the DMA since 1909 and artists active in Texas who have work in the DMA collections. Finally, the section Supporting Texas Artists outlines the grants and purchase awards to Texas artists, given by the DMA since 1903.
