C r e a t i v e W o n d e r: April 2012

My blog has evolved into an international showcase of contemporary art. It is hard to believe how many talented artists are out there in the world today. I would never have known about them if I hadn't started this blog. Several artists have told me they use my blog for inspiration. Some folks have said they use my blog to relieve stress. I do tend to select the art work that brings about calm feelings to the viewer and the beauty of the world. It is as if I can feel the artists' spirit in the work that I select. I hope that in some way this blog helps artists all over the world to gain recognition as well as help them to sell their work.

Selecting the word 'link' at the bottom of post will take you to the artist's web site or a gallery who represents them.
