Artists Insights is being produced by artists for artists. At present it is all being done by one person, yours truly Stephen C. Miller editor/writer/reviewer/artist. But it is my hope that other artists will contribute to Artists Insights and help make it a great source of information about art on the internet.

So now on to our Featured Site Illusions Art Gallery. Yes I am aware this amounts to self promotion. But give me a break this is my first e-zine and I am an artist first and foremost. They say, write what you know, so in this issue I will do just that.

Illusions Art Gallery at present is showing the work of Stephen C. Miller, a self taught artist who works in many mediums and reside in Arizona. The site presents his work in two forms, a click through gallery with click details and a hands free slide show that automatically shows the next work every 15 seconds. The site is easy to navigate and visually pleasing. Just remember to click on all images. The site design is good in that it has limited the number of images per page, so it loads faster and displays art work images in a large viewing format, allowing you to see details in the artists work. The sites' link page has a great selection Art related sites and welcomes all links submitted by artists. The site also has pages selling fine art prints and art books. When you visit make sure to sign the guest book and leave your comments and questions to the artist on the message board. Illusions Art Gallery is lookng for artist who would like to show their work on their site.
