Promoting Art With Out Using Your Brush

If you are a fan of art then you are always on the look out for hip new artists as well as established experts. However, on occasion you find artists that you not only relate to on an art level but there is something else that captures your interest. Sometimes it is down to the personality of the artist for example, as artists such as Doug Hyde have had frequent public praise whilst being bashed by critics.

Rolf Harris is an artist that is loved by most British families. Mainly this can be put down to our love for his pop songs and TV programmes like Animal Hospital. Rolf Harris is also a prolific painter so much so that he has even been given the honour of producing a portrait of the Queen. Rolf’s likable personality comes over in everything he does, that is why he is such a popular artist. Because of this Rolf Harris artist prints have sold very well in the UK.

British painter David Shepherd paints landscapes, animals and steam trains. He is a huge steam train enthusiast but is also known for his conservation work. He even started up the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation and was awarded an OBE for services to the conservation of animals. Many of artist David Shepherd prints raise awareness of conservation problems.

Sylvia Ji is an interesting young artist from San Francisco. Sylvia Ji prints and paintings are provocative and often use a range of themes and styles that would not seem out of place in a tattoo parlour. Unlike other artists Sylvia Ji has embraced the use of social networking sites like Facebook to market herself and her paintings. This has made her art increasingly popular, as fans can ask her questions and relate to her on a more personal level.
