Steemit Art Centre!! Friday's Update - Come and See What is New
Welcome to the 'Steemit Art Centre'.
So, what is new today?
We have another great Steemit Artist interview. Read what makes the fantastic @cobmaximus tick!
I decided to discontinue the Steemit Contest section of these posts. This is because I have been accused on Discord of trying to muscle in on contest holder's territory.
Okay, if that's how exposure is coming over, I'll take it down. You can't please all of the people....
Before I delay anymore, here's the interview. Enjoy!
@cobmaximus hosts the Funny Comic Strips Contest on Steemit. It's great to meet the guy behind the jokes!
Here is the full interview post:
I've added a new section where we can give exposure to articles we write about our favourite artists. Just drop a link to your post in the replies section below and I will add a summary, link to the full post and image.
Here is an article about the fabulous artwork of Claude Monet:
Claude Monet has been one of my favourite painters since I first saw his work. Follow the link to see how much I love Monet. It is my tribute!

How do you feel about pop art? Here is an article about Andy Warhol:

We can now alert visitors to our posts about famous/favourite artists so that gives more exposure.
Do you have any more ideas about exposure. I still need your ideas, please.
What would help you with exposure for your art?
Exposure is important because the more your art is seen, the more followers you will attract and, in turn, that brings more upvotes and income for you.
We have the Steemit Art Centre Gallery running now, albeit only three artists have exhibits in it but it's there for everyone.
Please use the Gallery and tell me any more ideas you have that might benefit us.
The interview with the artist, @MagicCleatus was very well received. Please read it :)
This interview falls into the 'must-read' category. @MagicCleatus is a valued contributor to the Artstorm Contests and hosts his own Zen Colouring Contest, so many of you will know him already. Why not read this interview and get to know more about him?

Here is information about using the Steemit Art Centre Gallery:
We are making a gallery of our artwork.
Any artists who want to display their work in the Steemit Art Centre Galley should make their own post with the artwork they want to display then drop a link here like you do in Artstorm. That will enable me to display it. You can display one piece of artwork every 7 days.
It also means you get income from your own post.
Here is a submission from @lildebbiecakes. In Artstorm, we know her for her digital art so it's lovely to see how versatile she is with this trad art piece.
The artwork is entitled, 'Inner Peace'.

I'm delighted to add another new submission from @pollocyber.
This marvellous digital work is entitled "I CAN SEE YOUR EYES".

@pollocyber is a regular Artstorm winner so it's lovely to see his work here.

Now we are joined by the excellent sketch by @fourapril. She says, 'All my life I'm a fan of fantasy. And here is one of the works of the writer Gene Wolfe "The Sword of the Lictor" inspired me to paint this art. But keep in mind that I'm just learning to sketch)'

Work is progressing on interviews with Steemit artists. Two more artists are being interviewed at present.
I do hope you'll join me in this initiative to promote art. Please visit often as Steemit Art Centre will be regularly updated.
Please let me know what you think about it! Do you have any suggestions?
oh man, I had actually bookmarked your page for one reason because I thought you would be listing contests and I love joining them, but have a hard time finding them in the limited time I have available searching!
Try this link. I think this guy does a good job :)
