Art & Artists

Hand-picked, independent sites worth your time on art & artists. ← carolekatchen.com home

📊 Source Intelligence

Useful for: Open collections and how artists present their work online.

What we learn from them: Museums giving away high-res images (Met, Rijks, Getty) get cited everywhere; artist sites win with clean galleries and story.

How we compete: We compete on personal narrative — the artist's own voice, work shown large, nothing between viewer and paint.
