Social Networking site for artists!

Okay, so I've been apathetic with this blog.  It's discouraging when you feel like you are talking to yourself.

I wanted to share with whoever happens to see this that there is a very new social networking site for artists!

Artspirant  is a social networking site for artists to network, get inspired, blog, and share their portfolio.  Check it out!

Call to Artists

exhibition opportunities   This site posts exhibition opportunities if you like to make collage art or want to give it a try.  There is also a current listing for recycled art!  The deadline is in April, so get started!  Feel free to comment with any other opportunities you may have heard of or are taking part in  :)  And if you ever enter any of the call to artists and have pieces accepted, I would love to hear about it!

Museum without walls!

Museum without walls   This is another interesting concept!  The internet is a wonderful thing :)

Call for artists

I stumbled across the Frist Center because they have an exhibition now featuring works by two artists I love, Kate Clarke and Patricia Piccinini (along with many others).  I noticed their call for artists http://fristcenter.org/submit-a-work 

I think it is a very interesting concept.  The idea is that you visit the Frist and make sketches while you are there.  Then you submit art works made from them from the current exhibition To See How Artists See.  You create art from one of the following categories:

Romanticism and Realism                                           
Impressionism
Forces in Nature
Nature and Abstraction
Modern Life
The City
Memory and Identity
Legacy of Cubism
Transition to Abstract Expressionism
Abstract Expressionism


The work is then submitted to facebook!  They have a juried show ON FACEBOOK.  How interesting is this whole concept?  I hope to see more things like it in the future :)

Museum donation :)

I donated 4 pieces to the Ontological Museum of the Post Dogmatist Group.
You can do the same! Check out their call to artwork here:  http://ontologicalmuseum.org/exhibitions.html

It's Nice That

I have spent HOURS on this site!  It's Nice That  I decided that it needs to be shared.  Artists, events, jobsboard, this site has it all!  Discover new artists, get inspired, find out what's going on now in the art world!  You're welcome ;)
