Also, currently this only includes one piece of art per artist. I'm not sure that's the best idea, but it does nicely filter down the dataset. Definitely want to think...

Definitely don't want an inconsistent structure. I'd say we should probably put in 0 for the leaf fields. Do we have a sense of what percentage of data is missing...

Dr. Kafura weighed in on this, and I just realized you didn't get CCed in: "I dont see this as a "big" issue but it does seem worthwhile to keep...
