Every month there is a Featured Artist. The member chosen gets their own article about their work. I review and highlight the sketchbook collection that the artist has in our members’ galleries. This is good exposure—a custom news review designed to elevate an artist’s presence on the web. If you’re not a member of Sketchbooks.org yet, it’s a great time to join. Every member has a chance at a featured spot, and it’s one of the many reasons to become part of our growing artist community.
