SOCIAL ART BLOG

Welcome back artists, it’s 2020!! The past two years college and work have consumed my being and although I have attempted to revamp the site a few time, my efforts fell in face of responsibilities.  2019 was an awesome year of art for me, I really began to expand my Mediums, starting in water coloring, and finally dedicated a little more time to what I love most - Art! I recently started a instagram art account and fell in love with the positive response it’s gained. It reminded me of the good old days when i used artstars to share my art and connect with people... this got me thinking, what if I connect the two platform; hence the inspiration, a new millennium makeover was needed! Over the past 3 days I have revamped ArtStars completely and Im excited to share my new visions with you all! 

I really wanted to dwell on the phrase that has dominated this website since it’s early days, “Art for All”. This phrase means so much to me as each year I learn more and more about the amazing things art is capable of and how we don’t just create art, it creates us! I believe that art is powerful and has the ability to unite the world despite barriers. Personally, art has helped me with mental health and wellness as it is a way to express myself and cope with life’s stressors. I wanted to reflect these new ideas in the new design! New logo, new structure, new tab names! I wanted to start fresh with the look, keep it clean, yet still playful and colorful, after all art isn’t perfect. The main color, the iconic red now accompanied along with the addition of the rest of the rainbow colors, each color representing a feature on the blog. I thought it was a colorful way to express inclusion and visual interest into the site. Despite all the changes and new logos, the purpose has always stayed true to being a social art blog dedicatedly to sparking community and smiles through art, which I hope I can get back Into this millennium! 

Thanks for stopping by, glad you are here!
