Treasury- some of Etsy's great painters
This evening I got a Treasury West, as they call it. I decided to find some great paintings of the sky to fill it. I was very happy with the artwork I found. To visit my treasury, and link to the individual artists, click here.

An artist just is.
Another artist on Etsy, Krystyna81 posted an article to the Gallery United Blog referencing the article The Financially Successful Artist: Commercial Sell Out or Role Model? by Denise Ivey Telep. I think the questions posed in this article are important for today's artist to think about.
One statement in the article that really resonated with me is: "An artist is. It’s soul deep."
That's how I feel about being an artist. I just am, to my very core. To me, it doesn't matter what media I have to work with, I am happy to create with it. I am just as happy making a painting, a collage, a photograph, a digital drawing, a clay pot, drawing on a napkin, carving a potato, or sculpting with pipe-cleaners. If one media isn't available, I see what else there is to work with, and each inspires a whole new line of art.
