Artists & Galleries
Artists, like may artisans, stay inside protective shells.
Technically I create prints. But artists who use traditional means to create prints, do not call my art as "printmaking."
My work is rejected from most juried printmaking shows because it involves a computer.
Similarly, although I draw on a computer, my art is also rejected on most juried drawing shows.
Galleries
Galleries reject the art because it is a new medium which they prefer not to exhibit or understand.
Most galleries prefer to showcase oil paintings - sometimes pastels or drawings are included in their offerings.
The frustrating experience has nudged me into showing and selling my art mostly online.
A few physical art shows are more open minded and allow art created with computers and printers.
I try to participate in as many of those as possible for people to see what can be done using a computer as a tool.
Out of frustration, I have created this online gallery to showcase my work.
My art has shown in a number of juried shows with live exhibits. I’ll continue to participate as long as they accept my art:
