+## Schema Designer
+
+Time to learn about databases. Take a look at this [database schema designer](http://ondras.zarovi.cz/sql/demo/). We're going to design databases with it. Lots of them.  
+For this assignment, design databases that model the following relationships. Once you're done modeling them, take a screen shot of your schema and put it in the pics folder. Please name the pics to reflect which database they model.

+#### Art Gallery
+
+An art gallery needs to upgrade their systems.
+
+Galleries keep information about artists, their names (which are unique), birthplaces, age, and style of art.
+
+For each piece of artwork, the artist, the year it was made, its unique title, its type of art (e.g., painting, lithograph, sculpture, photograph), and its price must be stored.
+
+Pieces of artwork are also classified into groups of various kinds, for example, portraits, still lifes, works by Picasso, or works of the 19th century; a given piece may belong to more than one group.
+
+You don't have to model exactly this. Think about what your art gallery is going to sell and it's interaction with customers.
+
+Model what you think the database needs for the beginning of the business, and build the model so that it has room to grow into its future needs.
