ArtAndArtDeadlines.com has a lot of competition out there.
I have used many of them throughout my art career. Some of my favorites are ArtShow.com and ArtCalendar.com. Each of them does what they do very well. ArtAndArtDeadlines.com is meant to be a visual respite, a tasty morsel if you will, among the many art deadlines sites that thrive on lists…but there is room for all of us.
Today, I would like to call your attention to ArtCalendar.com’s Studio Makeover Contest which is co-sponsored by Dick Blick. Please note, Dick Blick is not an official sponsor of this site–although I do love their gallery wrapped canvases. I don’t know a single artist whose studio couldn’t use a makeover, and mine is no exception. Here are the details:
