Millard Sheets (1907-1989), who in the 1930s emerged as a leader of the "California Style" of watercolor painting and in the next two decades expanded his artistic processes to oil, acrylic and mosaic design. Scripps Sheets built a strong studio art faculty, including Jean Ames in design, Phil Dike in watercolor painting, Henry Lee McFee in oil painting, Richard Petterson in ceramics, Albert Stewart in sculpture and Marion Stewart in weaving. Sheets also attracted many students to Scripps and the Graduate School. Together with the faculty artists in the 1940s and 1950s, he made Claremont into a vital artistic community.
