Direct from the Studio - The Magazine.

As artist's one of our biggest challenges is getting the exposure for our work.  It occurred to me, that if we did this together we could go far further than if we keep plugging away on our own. 

The idea came to publish a digital magazine/catalogue that would showcase our work, together.  Sharing to our communities, growing our exposure and increasing our sales.

Here is the mock up of the cover.  

​The magazine will have the animated flip feature, and a table of contents for all artists featured within each issue. 

It will be published every two months with the next available issue being in April 5, 2022. Each issue will be available for viewing for 2 weeks. This will build in some urgency as the magazine will go away after the two week period. 

Each artist will have a three pages spread to share their artwork and their message to the audience. This could consist of one page for a story about your work and two pages for your art work. Not sure what you write in a story, guidance for this article is included. 

Each piece that you have for sale will have a direct link from the magazine to your sales page. This could include merchandise such as scarves with your artwork printed on it or note cards etc., in addition to your artwork. 

Limit of (5) artists per issue.
