It is an excellent tool for visual artists who would like a web presence, and for arts enthusiasts and supporters to discover the rich variety of visual artists in Arkansas.
Artist Registry members receive our e-newsletter and e-blasts as well as information about workshops, competitions, calls for entry and other postings. Members are also eligible to participate in Small Works on Paper, the annual juried visual art exhibition sponsored by the Arkansas Artist Registry.

I have drawn with silverpoint since the 1980's. I draw with a metal stylus on a prepared surface. Hatched and cross-hatched lines create values and textures. The white of the page provides contrast. All marks are premeditated, as silverpoint will not erase. I focus on the relationships between shapes, light, and shadows. I must study, and carefully examine, as I draw. This process repeats until my forms come to life. At times this process feels effortless, but often it is a struggle. Silverpoint is a slow arduous process; therefore I must take my time. My drawing is meditation.
