Welcoming Artist Christina Imogen
Sponsored by Wild Bill Jones
We welcome Christina Imogen to Art Ability World

"Bill And The Golden Earth"
Original Acrylic On Canvas with Gold Leaf
I started drawing at a very early age, and always felt like I was in another world when I was being creative. It helped me through my childhood, which was very rough. At age 10, I was able to impress almost anyone with my drawings of flowers, which was my only real passion. This was directly connected to my support, which came from my father. He had a passion for flowers, and he'd be really happy when I paid attention to that in my art. When I was 13, I stopped drawing, sank into depression and worse for years and years, until I started drawing again at age 20. This time I knew I'd have to draw if I wanted to live. Somehow those two things are connected. Since then, I have been painting and drawing with and on everything I possibly could. Over the years, I have evolved a style that is unlike any other I have seen so far. I have never taken any classes. When I was taking my education though, I had to go through an art class, and I was miserable there, being forced to create things that meant nothing to me. When the day of exam came, my assignment was to draw a horse, then pull a question and tell about the aspect of art that the question was pointed to. I drew a serial killer whom I was fascinated with at the time instead of the horse, and my teacher wanted to give me a D. I passed though, because I was lucky enough to know the answers to my questions. And phew.

The Artist As Patron
Philanthropy and The Arts
Its long been known that artists are the greatest of Philanthropists for in the course of their professional careers...they are most "often" asked to donate an original painting to a variety of "causes."
In order to build the wing of the new Children's Hospital, to underwrite the need for pure water in 3rd World Countries, to fund the "Arts Umbrella," a local school or group that offers arts programs to kids...and a variety of other topics and programs.
And the artist "delivers..."
They, on the verge of a decision of whether to "eat" or to buy new art supplies, they consistently find a way to purchase the materials to create that new painting, and secure the canvas, the paint, get it framed and thus, deliver the original works to the Event. The image is donated to the organization which is then "auctioned" to its patrons.
Often the image goes off the chopping block at a significantly reduced price than what is should sell for. All of this is good and fine and noble...yet the artist rarely benefits from a "future" sale because they have donated to the cause. They may in fact only receive entry into the event, as be given an evening of entertainment and perhaps "dinner" for having participated in the Fundraiser.
All of this is "good" ~ However, doesn't one wonder how on earth the artist continues to exist, to feed oneself, and how, particularly, the artist continues to muster the courage to paint, create and give their art to a variety of options that may or may not pay them for their time.
It is only within the culture of the United States, that few seem to rise to the top of the industry, and garner the feature of acclaimed and wealthy patrons...thus creating a sustained income.
So over the years, it has been my "job" to find ways that the artist can continue to exist, can adapt their work to a variety of options, either in "print" art or in the continued acquisition and sale of original works.
And I always find a way ~ Always ~ and then of course, it is a decision whether the artist chooses to participate in the method of distribution....so its a catch - 22 for the artist and for the promoter.
Both take significant risks in regard to representation of the collections, the artist and must trust the artist's capacity to deliver. Sometimes there is an explosion, if you will, an inability to "come" to a meeting of minds....and both suffer losses....
The artist, for an unwillingness to "go" where the work is being called, and the broker in an inability to find a niche market best suited for the work, to which the artist will agree.
I have encountered both situations, as artist and as Representative and Agent.
The mutual participation requires an Act of Faith that is no less than I'm sure what is called upon from most devotees of a particular "religion" ~ There requires intrinsic faith, in both parties....and the process takes time. There are NO quick fixes in this industry....
With that I have thought long and hard, worked both as Agent, Gallery Owner, Representative, Liason...and ultimately "artist" and can come to the table with a significantly "broadened" perspective on the topic.
I have reached the following conclusion. The "artist's" abiluty to "intuit" how not only to create the original work and paint it is also the force that must be utilized by the Agent to maximize potential and placement in the Arts....as a remunerative "business." And there needs to be a "trust" placed in the Agent's hands to find the best situation for this to occur.
This takes time...and in my experience can happen quickly if the artist gives the Agent "reign" to place the works.....it takes longer in regard to planning and developing a long term strategy for the works and their placement.
Being at the whim of galleries is "risky" but it is equally "risky' to be at the whim of the artist ~ Both can suffer, but I prefer to design how "both" can win.
Add the mix of a very unstable enconomy and its a recipe for "Perfection" in a very different method of presentation...or could spell disaster for most.
There are two positive things that are occurring now...as we come full circle operating in an economy that has 'broken" many or severely "humbled" others. One must find a new way....and we have...
I would invite you to participate in a new program created by Sian Design, fostered and supported by Fett Marketing and its CEO, Chris Kauza. For nearly two years we have put our heads together over this one.....and by adopting the "tool" of Social Media and technology we have sincerely re-invented the way in which artists can and will be supported in these very trying times.
Please take a look at our link
ART ABILITY WORLD
http://www.artabilityworld.com
And we are asking you, the artist to give yourself the "gift" of promotion through Social Media with our methods.
We have, over the last year and a half run 6 successful campaigns that have brought success to a variety to projects, some non profit fundraising, others retail sales and all within the realm of using the art in a way to tell both ITS story and the story of the artist.
By participating you will benefit in a variety of ways.
And the cost to you the artist for the term of one year is only $8.88
Yes you heard me $8.88 (eight dollars and eighty eight cents.)
Its an incredible opportunity to build your visibility, through Social Media, and to garner potential placement in events, exhibitions and projects that we are working on.....and at this time it is the initial way that I can ask you to invest in yourself.
Again, review this link http://www.artabilityworld.com
And this link in particular to join us
http://artabilityworld.com/shanghai-world-expo-2010/
For it is through the methods that we are using that we have secured Exhibition opportunities for artists at Shanghai World Expo ~ and this is the initial requirement for consideration....
I welcome your participation and I look forward to being able to further your success in the Fine Arts Industries...which is inclusive of Music, Performance, Dance, Sculpting, Painting, Photography ~ There are no limits on my thinking, and there are no limits to finding a way.....to succeed.
Its been my complete commitment for over 30 years. And on both sides of the coin, Artist and Agent ~ we have always found a "way"

No Starving Artists
Jeff Schomay Graphic Design
How many of us are familiar with the "term" and acceptance that at some point in our "artistic careers", Present or Past, consisted of exotic ways to prepare the 10 for one dollar Ramen Dinners.
I see a few hands raised, in answer to that question.
I among you, have experienced this personally, although I have to admit it has not occurred recently or for many years, there was a time where I was very creative in my 1001 ways to dine for less than $1.00
I am certainly glad those days are over ~ but as with the perception that this economy has defined that it is not possible to be creative, to work, to play or to make money,in the arts, I am suggesting a GROUP PROJECT, for all of those who are willing to admit that they spent even ONE minute creating new ways to dine on Ramen Noodles.
I will be sharing my favorite combinations and would ask of you to consider the same.
It will be enlightening to discover just how creative one can be at the times when it felt like the sky was falling upon your head...
We'll delight in all the variations AND we will select the best recipes, which of course will have to be tested ~ That will be the fun part ~ to determine which recipes go into a series of books on the topic of
"Sustaining oneself in the arts...Or How not to become like the cartoon character posted above"
"Thank you Jeff Schomay"
All it takes is a little bit of "creativity"
