Artists featured in Informed Collector are generally chosen from entries in our painting competition. Each award winner in our monthly painting competition receives a feature in Informed Collector as part of the award (unless that artist has been featured in the past six months already).  In addition, we normally select 80-100 "favorites" to be part of the "FAV 15" each month.  Artists for Informed Collector are often chosen from that group as well.  Occasionally, we will "stumble across" a great artist to feature, but, by far the best way to be considered for Informed Collector is to enter (and place) in our monthly painting competitions.

Each Friday we send a newsletter called "Selected Exhibits by Informed Collector Artists."  The exhibits are a list of upcoming art shows by artists who have previously been featured in Informed Collector.  If you haven't been featured previously in Informed Collector, your exhibit won't be included in that feature (at least not until after you've been featured!).  If you have previously been featured in Informed Collector, you can add your exhibit info in your Canvoo or FASO control panel.  Please don't email the info to our staff as we don't have the manpower to enter exhibit info manually - it's really simple to add it in the control panel.

Thank You.
