In this interview, Texas Southern art alumnus Robert Pruitt discusses his time as an art student (1993-2000) and as an artist later on. During Pruitt’s time at TSU, he learned from Dr. Alvia J. Wardlaw and Professor Harvey Johnson, the latter of whom’s drawing classes were particularly influential on Pruitt and his practice.
