Lois Ireland

John Steuart Curry recruited Lois Ireland to the Wisconsin Regional Art Program based at the University of Wisconsin when she was fourteen years old. She exhibited her first painting at the 1943 Rural Art Exhibit. She subsequently studied art at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and at the Art Students League in New York. Ireland represented scenes of rural Wisconsin, continuing the regionalist scene painting tradition made famous by Curry, Grant Wood, and Thomas Hart Benton.
