Creativity is a journey. Creating is not just something you do - it’s a way of life. A lifestyle. The topic of creativity is so broad, and there are a million different ways you can approach it. Everyone’s journey looks different, and I think we all have valuable lessons to offer each other.
Wet Glu is an enterprise which encourages young artists to continue working on fresh ideas. Our objective is to bring their work to light and give them the chance to expose their illustrations freely in a global platform available online and offline. We also seek to inspire our readers with our broad collection of artists and artworks; each one of our issues features a different artist and 6 of his or her most popular and representative artworks. The techniques vary from digital illustration to watercolor, collage, acrylic paint, etc. We sincerely hope to be a friendly platform of free expression and a broad source of inspiration for each and every kind of graphic artist, illustrator, designer or art enthusiast. We want you to become part of the Wet glu comunity!
