My name is Annette Labedzki. I am a Canadian abstract painter. I have been
a full time artist for 25 years.
I have a web site in which I am able to invite other artists. The address is www.labedzki-art.com
It's quite simple to join, click on "register", "login", "create/order album"(this is where you give your album a title only,) then "upload images", I usually only load two or three at a time .Once you've loaded you can go to home page click on "user gallery" and you'll see your images! Of course there are no fees and your image upload is unlimited! For art collectors this is a great place to buy original art for a great price.
Thank you so much and I really hope to see your work there
Regards,
Annette Labedzki
