in rereading some older posts, i re-stumbled onto these golden beauties.... jen wallace, in an attempt to mitigate mid recession blues, began a project called feed your soul. and it's free art. no gimmicks, no sign ups, nothing sleazy going on behind the scenes. legitimately free art. she invited artists to contribute, and artist sent in art, that people could then download for free. seriously. i know.
as jen says, "I love art and I know you do too. I also know that when people start to tighten up the purse strings they tend not spend money on things that aren’t necessary for survival, things like books, magazines and art. But, art is important for your soul. It helps rejuvenate, it’s thought-provoking, offers inspiration and can generally brighten an otherwise dreary day among other things."
this is an older project now, but all the art is still there for the downloading. it seems to me that artists are no longer uploading art.... but nevertheless, it's all there for you.
i simply love this concept. art as it should be. art for all. art should not be a thing that is inaccessible... it should be the opposite. thank you jen wallace, for thinking this as well, and making art something that all of us (with the internet) can have.
