Consider this my Christmas gift to all of you – it’s a list of websites that you should absolutely check out, bookmark, and subscribe to if you are an artist. Each is full of information for improving and broadening your knowledge as a professional artist.
www.EmptyEasel.com – a longtime favorite of mine, this daily blog by Dan covers virtually every aspect of creating and selling your art. Website advice, marketing articles, how-to articles, and featured work by numerous artists are just a few of the topics covered on this site. If you subscribe to the email list you simply receive a weekly preview of the articles coming up every Sunday so you can pick and choose which days you want to visit.
www.ArtFairCalendar.com – this doesn’t require much explaining, but Connie Mettler’s site is your number one contact for all things art fair related. The most up to date and comprehensive list of art fairs, calls for entries, and state-specific art fair reviews and deadlines on the web.
www.ArtistCareerGuide.com – I found this site from reading Jackie Battenfield’s book “The Artist’s Guide – How to Make a Living Doing What You Love” which is a tremendous resource for all people interested in learning to support yourself with your creative talents.
www.ArtBizCoach.com – Alyson B. Stanfield has a fantastic blog for guiding your art career, and also hosts numerous workshops. From marketing to studio organization, you’ll find what you need here.
