About me:<br />

My name is Erica Willey and I have just recently graduated from Kendall College of Art and Design. For 25 years now I’ve lived<br />

in the same house in a little place called Jamestown, located in Michigan.<br />

My favorite author is Dan Simmons, I enjoy hiking and swimming, and I love to travel. I live a pretty simple life, but now that<br />

I’m a graduate I’m getting very excited of the possibilities waiting to happen.<br />

As of now my goal this year is move to California, create new experiences, and build up my dream career. It’ll be hard work, but<br />

I am more than ready for the challenge.<br />

About my art:<br />

ello, Erica tell me about yourself?<br />

What’s the purpose of what your trying to create?<br />

Now every artist is always asked what the purpose was<br />

behind their piece of art, and there will always be different<br />

answers. I suppose the purpose behind every painting<br />

I imagine is exactly that; to let the mind imagine, to let<br />

those gears take over and see what a little imagination can<br />

come up with. In a way it’s a sense of freedom to let the<br />

brain wonder off track for awhile.<br />

The end results may be shocking, but that’s the joy of it<br />

all. As to what my artwork is actually about, though, well<br />

that’s a good question. Every painting tells a different<br />

a story, so no piece of work is the same. But if I had to<br />

say, overall, what my work is about, is it’s about beauty.<br />

Whether that beauty is found in the craftsmanship of the<br />

artwork, or the meaning behind it. I leave those decisions<br />

up to the viewer. After all, isn’t art created to engage<br />

one’s mind and expand the imagination?<br />

goals.<br />

Our objective is to put up a domain of<br />

our own to replace our flimsy .wix<br />

account. The problem with that is that<br />

acquiring and maintaining a domain is<br />

pricey because of contracting a web designer<br />

and maintaince cost as well as future changes<br />

and monthly announcements regarding our<br />

magazine publications and recent notable<br />

activities.<br />

Here is an introductory video explaining our<br />

goal for financing such a site.<br />

Click to play<br />

We are a free collaborative artist magazine<br />

that is made with the efforts of artist<br />

around Grand Rapids, MI and abroad. But we<br />

also have needs of our own and with the staff that<br />

we have on board we are not enough and do not<br />

have the man-hours necessary to keep up with<br />

the demands of the artist.<br />

The only option that we will have to resort to is<br />

to make our magazine free to read, but cost a<br />

premium up front for submitting content. Which<br />

defeats the purpose of a free magazine.<br />

That is why we are asking for user contributions<br />

and to further develop our magazine content,<br />

quality and integration with mobile devices.<br />
