Artist Resources. Artist Resources This page will be an evolving* list of resources for artists for supplies, frames, mounting, shipping, jobs, and the like. Regarding businesses, they may not be the cheapest but they are businesses other artists have used, recommended, and been very happy with the service provided. Most are local, some are not. Note: No businesses have paid me money, given me discounts or given me large quantities of chocolate to be listed here. As with all things, check it out for yourself and/or reviews online of these businesses. Their listing here is not an endorsement of Bay Area Art Grind…just the local artworld-word-of-mouth suggestions. *evolving, meaning I will be adding to this list as time goes on. _____________________Art/Artist Supplies & ServicesGeneral Art Supplies Wild Rose Art Supplies and Custom Framing 1929 Main Street, Watsonville, Ca, 95076 831-722- Utrecht Art Supplies Locations in San Francisco, Berkeley, Sacramento and Los Angeles. :: CCI :: About Artist Resources ::

Leaving a Legacy January 1, 2007 © Daniel Grant Great art is often considered priceless, but collectors and dealers know better: Art is priced not only on quality but also on how it is perceived as fitting into the art-historical continuum. And, sometimes, a dealer's determined efforts to promote a client can help secure his or her place in history. Take dealer John Driscoll of New York City's Babcock Galleries, who firmly believes that 95-year-old Massachusetts artist Will Barnet, whom he has represented since 2004, is one of the most important contemporary artists working today.
"I define an artist's importance by three criteria: How much he or she captures the soul of a moment, how much he or she influences subsequent generations of painters, and how much he or she expresses an individual style," the dealer says. "Barnet succeeds in all three of these areas, and I believe that when the history of this artistic era is written, his work will be remembered. " Julie Rico, www.weeneez.com.
