Art By Izzy

Woop woop. There is some criteria’s of course but this is definitely something to consider for your business. Art is fantastic for your and your staffs mental health, great talking point for your customers and also a awesome social media post opportunity. I am able now to do detachable mural size exterior painting. Spring commissions open.

I am posting this from another artist’s page, but it resonated with me so much that I have to share it. These are all very true, and reasonable figures, and the bottom line is quite accurate. So think about purchasing original art, or a workshop, or a Patreon subscription, or all of the above! We need art in our lives, we need artists in our world!!!

The Kamilaroi/Bigambul artist has made history as the first Australian to win the esteemed prize. READ MORE: https://bit.ly/3xTSJLD
