Note from your Editors

Note from your Editors Susan Schaefer / Jeff Shields / Chace

Well folks, this has been one heck of a roller coaster of a year. We should all give ourselves a pat on the back, as we did the best we could, under the circumstances. Good job everyone!

I have heard from many artists, read posts on line and experienced it myself - that there seems to be a new interest in fine arts. Artists are selling their work and getting commissions. The flood gates are beginning to crack. Let’s hope it busts wide open next year.

Perhaps people have spent too much time at home, looking at their bare walls and re-decorating. More and more people are surfing around online. Or perhaps at a time when we have somewhat lost control of a lot of things, ART is the only constant that we have control of. We can admire and purchase what and when we like. Whatever the reason, let’s keep the energy moving.

This season when you are looking for that gift for someone special (and that special someone could be you) think ART. We have included a shopping directory on pages 16 & 17.

On a more personal note, we would like to thank everyone for their continued support. We told you in April that due to CoVid we had made the decision to go digital. You supported our decision without question. As a result we have been able to go forth with renewed energy, getting international readers and submissions from as far away as Italy.

Thank You - Best Wishes for a Healthy & Creative 2021
