SUPPORT THE ARTS
BEING A WORKING ARTIST TODAY BRINGS WITH IT MANY MORE CHALLENGES THAT THE ARTS COMMUNITY
AND IT'S ARTISTS ARE HAVING TO FACE WHILE FOLLOWING THEIR PASSIONS AND DREAMS. LIKE
ACTORS, DANCERS AND MUSICIANS, VISUAL ARTISTS ARE BEING CHALLENGED DAILY TO CONTINUE TO
WORK ON THEIR TRADE AND PRODUCE THEIR ART. DAILY EXPENSES FOR NEEDED SUPPLIES SUCH AS
PAINT AND CANVAS AND BRUSHES ARE BECOMING HARDER TO COVER WHILE THE PRICES OF THESE
ITEMS RISES, SHIPPING EXPENSES RISE AND MEETING THE FINANCIAL NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO PAINT
BECOMES MORE DIFFICULT.
BELOW, YOU WILL FIND A BUTTON YOU CAN CLICK TO HELP ME MAKE ENDS MEET AND AFFORD THE
BASIC NEEDS THAT AN ARTIST HAS TO BE AN ARTIST. IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT AND HAVE A PASSION
FOR THE ARTS, CLICK THAT BUTTON AND KNOW THAT EVERY LITTLE BIT COUNTS AND WILL HELP DEFER
THE COSTS TO CREATE THE ARTWORK THAT YOU SEE ON THIS WEBSITE.
A GOOD EXAMPLE OF WHY ARTISTS NEED THIS HELP WOULD BE TO EXPLAIN WHAT IS INVOLVED IN
CREATING A PIECE, POSTING IT ON A WEBSITE AND THEN SHIPPING IT TO SOMEONE WHO BUYS IT.A 24
PACK OF 22 ML TUBES OF PAINT COSTS AROUND 30 DOLLARS. A 4 PACK OF 18"X24" CANVAS COSTS
AROUND 40 DOLLARS AND THE PRICE TO FED-EX THE SAME 18"X24"PIECE OF ART COSTS AS MUCH AS
75 DOLLARS. FINALLY, THERE ARE THE BRUSHES, CUPS, RAGS AND THE WEBSITE WHICH ALONE RUNS
16 DOLLARS A MONTH TO MAINTAIN.
I KNOW THAT MANY WOULD SAY TO JUST ADD THESE COSTS INTO THE PRICE OF THE ARTWORK BUT BY
DOING THAT THE ART BECOMES MORE EXPENSIVE AND PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST NORMAL EVERYDAY FOLKS
WHO WANT SOMETHING UNIQUE AND SPECIAL IN THEIR HOME ARE PRICED OUT OF THE ABILITY TO BUY
IT AND ACTUALLY CAN'T AFFORD TO SUPPORT THE ARTIST AND WHEN THAT HAPPENS, WE ALL LOSE.
SO, BY DONATING A DOLLAR HERE AND A DOLLAR THERE TO THE CAUSE, IT HELPS ME CREATE MORE
ARTWORK AND POST IT ON THE WEBSITE SO THAT EVERYDAY ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN GET THE BEST
PRICE POSSIBLE AND BRING A KATHEDLOK ORIGINAL INTO YOUR HOME.
I APPRECIATE GREATLY ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE AND YOUR SUPPORT OF EVEN ONE ARTIST MEANS THAT
TOGETHER, WE CAN ADD SOME COLOR INTO THIS WORLD AND LEAVE OUR COLLECTIVE MARK FOR
ART LOVERS TO SEE AND APPRECIATE AND PASS DOWN TO OTHERS.
