Juried Artist Directory

Welcome to the new Juried Artist Directory!

Our Directory is dedicated to creating a free, online listing of 2D and 3D visual artists who have been recognized by independent jurors and panels connected to the Arkansas Arts Council's programs. Directory artists have been recognized by programs, such as Small Works on Paper, Individual Artist Fellowships, Governor's Arts Awards or Arkansas Living Treasure programs.

Artists chosen for the Directory have the opportunity to showcase their artworks on a free platform to help promote and market themselves and their artistic careers. Works can be updated by contacting the artist services manager.

Artists who have not updated their pages within two years and have not been chosen by independent judges or panels will be removed from the Directory. This is an ongoing process. Thank you for your patience.

My recent series of house tapestries displays my concerns about the economy and social issues. The tapestries show cracked facades indicating both possible damage from earthquakes and inner turmoil. My own home, a place my husband and I built one board at a time, represents a place of security. Even here the consequences of altering the earth's processes are felt. The ongoing dialogue about this transformation and my response to it made me realize that I want my house to spark a conversation about the environmental threats and sustainable practices.
