NEW Artist Resource Directory

Today, I am launching a new artist directory on my other blog, Inspired Me 411. It is an artist resource page filled of websites I have collected over the years. The page consist of 11 lists. 

CLICK HERE

Here are the categories: 

  • Art School 
  • Art Supplies
  • Artist Open Calls and Opportunities
  • Artist Courses
  • Artist Events
  • Marketing and Business
  • Online Art Retail
  • Organizations
  • Other Resources
  • Southern California Museums and Galleries
 Also, here are five of some of my favorite sites from the lists. 

  1. Stacy Bloomfield - She offers various paid and free art licensing, marketing and general art business courses. I took one of her free courses and it was excellent. She also helps you discover multiple streams of income as an artist.
  2. Artwork Archive - They offer multiple business services and resources for artists for a monthly fee. Also, they offer free online seminars that I have attended. Their services include inventory cataloging, online invoicing, income tracking and more.
  3. Las Laguna Gallery - I haven't submitted my work yet, but I do like that they have multiple open calls each year. Anyone who submits to one of their shows gets in the online event. Selected artist will be invited to their in-person show.
  4. Krista Irene Art- I recently discovered her YouTube channel and love her carefree style. She teaches how to loosen up in drawing and sketching using pens and markers. Her relaxed approach has inspired me.
  5. CaFE - This site has free national and international art open calls. Also, there are lots of interesting blog post in "CaFE Corner."

I will be adding more resources to this page and new blog posts. So make sure you SUBSCRIBE for all the updates.

Inspired Me 411 also features an "Art & Art Journaling" page which list artists and more resources that might be helpful to you. Click Here

Whether you are new or an experienced artists, I hope you will find this directory helpful for you and your business.

Relaunch of Our Business

Kelly & Ron Roberts Today, Ron and I are announcing the relaunch of our K. Simone Designs business. For those of you that are new to our work and site, click   ABOUT US   for more information.   In short, we started our business selling my handmade greeting cards in 2011. We sold and donated lots of cards and enjoyed bringing smiles to our customer's faces. In 2019, we took a long break. Since then, art has become my main interest and I have been drawing, painting and improving my skills. Art has been a wonderful outlet and joy for me and I have loved encouraging others with these creations.  So now K. Simone Designs will focus on our Inspired Art business. Our greeting cards are on hold for now but they are still apart of our brand. Also, I will continue to create YouTube papercrafting videos and add more resources to my arts and crafts directory. Our goal with all these creative products is to inspire others with love, hope, joy and peace. Here are so...

Emmy's 2010

Did you watch the red carpet last night for the Emmy's? I love watching these award show red carpets more than the show itself.  I just saw the pictures online. One the sites I looked at was radaronline.com. These pictures are from there. First, I liked the navy blue one.  The dress had lots of drama and she wore it well. The purple one was interesting.  Still trying to decide if I like it. Maybe it would have been better with the layers on the bottom but not both.  I really love the color and the idea. Maybe a little too much going on. radaronline.com This next dress worn by Eva Longoria was so pretty. The black flowers on the bottom of the dress was so stunning! She looked  great, too. I wonder how the dress would look in a lighter color? Maybe the floral details would show up better. radaronline.com Out of  all the dresses I saw these were the most interesting ones. I was a little disappointed there weren't more WOW dresses. Also, there were s...

Valentine's Cards

Happy belated Valentine's Day. I hope it was a sweet one for you all. I just love making greeting cards for this holiday.  Nornally for Valentine's I make red and black cards which I love but this year I decided to add some pastel colored cards to my collection. Earlier this year, I made some cards with this beautiful paper pad from Michael's. I loved it so much, I just had to see if I could use it for Valentine's and they look great to me. Details:  Recollections Paper is from Michael's 6x6 paper pad called "Blush and Mint."  Flowers made with my Spellbinders scalloped circles.  Take a look! Do you feel the love? LOL! Cards are 5x7 in size. See the heart in the center? Love that idea!     Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!
