New Way for Artists to Make Money in a Down Economy

July 30, 2009 - PRLog -- Artists wondering how to get their artwork noticed and, possibly make a few extra dollars, now have a website they can use. MyArtworkSpace.com today announced the launch of their 2nd Annual Spring Art Competition. $2,000 USD (€1,438 EUR) in cash and prizes are up for grabs to the best artists. This competition takes submissions from all mediums of contemporary fine art, including photography, sculpture, paintings and many others.

myartworkspace.com previous competitions have been able to supply multiple artists financial incentive to keep creating, even as economic times get harder. "I remember calling up one of the winners of our last competition." said Amanda Furlano, Co-Founder of http://www.myartworkspace.com "I informed this person they were a winner. I could hear the excitement in their voice as they told me this was their best news all month. See, they had just been laid off from their job a few weeks earlier and didn't know what they would do. The winnings came at just the right time. I started to swell up with such emotion, I almost couldn't finish the phone call!"

MyArtworkSpace.com's 2nd Annual Spring Art Competition will once again be able to lay a small foundation for artists as they continue to produce thought provoking, awe-inspiring experiences that makes us all feel truly, human.
