_Going on Art furlough_
Netdiver Mag will be on hiatus until mid-March /18. I am embarking in a most exciting phase of my life: preparing an exhibition worthy portfolio of both generative arts + abstract & plus fluid art paintings.
On top of that – 3 print portfolios to showcase paintings + generative art to gallery owners.
A lot and lots of work ahead.

I am thrilled beyond thrilled to have been accepted (vetted by a panel of artists) to own cgwarex.ART domain extension!
______
Self-explanatory
If you are an artist whose ‘name’ (as mine) says not much to a target audience – (unless you are one of the 1.5% of artists who live from their art) – then get yours.
Costs $$$ for the first year – but irrelevant if you think marketing $$$ to get your name out there. From now on – I will never have to explain what I do: .ART says it all.
Yay!
_______
Why choose .ART?
.ART is a new top-level domain created for the international art and culture community: identify – value word – express – inspire – search – connect – educate.
Now opened to all since May 10!
