In order for the majority of visual artists to maintain lasting art career success, a growing base of direct buying art collectors is recommended. As the art business experiences market gyrations and disruptions, you will find certain traditional venues are fading while new ways to sell art are brought into the mix.
Some of the changes artists face today include:
Dwindling gallery numbers.
Fear of another financial meltdown.
Changing consumer-buying habits.
Growth of online shopping.
Cheap, sometimes exact knockoff, imports.
Increased use of windows in residential design reduces wall art space.
Art Galleries still matter.
To be clear, while there are fewer galleries, this does not diminish their importance in connecting artists and collectors, or in their ability to influence tastes in art buying. As such, it remains a smart move for most artists to include gallery representation in their diversified distribution methods.

Web of Secrecy: YP23 Black Widow
“Web of Secrecy: YF-23 Black Widow II Declassified” is a 50 minute documentary about the making of the Northrop/McDonnell Douglas YF-23 stealth fighter and its fly-off against the Lockheed YF-22 in competition for the Advanced Tactical Fighter contract with the Air Force—as told by the team members who built the airplane. Due to the sensitive nature of certain footage, and the complex rights and permissions required to publish this documentary, it was never shown on US television. Read more HERE.
This is one incredible aircraft. A true work of art.
The Art of Mom
Mom is always with you…
She’s the whisper of the leaves
as you walk down the street.
She’s the smell of bleach in
your freshly laundered socks.
She’s the cool hand on your
brow when you’re not well.
Your mother lives inside
your laughter. She’s crystallized
in every tear drop…
She’s the place you came from,
your first home.. She’s the map you
follow with every step that you take.
She’s your first love and your first heart
break….and nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, Not space…
Not even death….
will ever separate you
from your mother….
You carry her inside of you….

Not really about Art, but then again
There are estimated to be 30,000 wild parakeets in Britain. Why are they thriving?
I have Parakeets and this is pretty good.
