I have a few goals for Art Palaver. Mainly enable artists to be able to create their art, also build a community around this blog. I believe having more voices will help do both of those things. Which is why I decided to start looking for other writers and guest bloggers. This is a ...

Using MySpace To Promote Your Art
**WARNING: This post is a bit of a rant. I’ll do my best to make it an educational rant.** Many artists use MySpace as the website for their art. Which is a fine idea. MySpace is free, easy to set up, and gets a lot of traffic. An artist should use MySpace to promote ...
