American Artist Appreciation Month Précis

American Artist Appreciation Month Précis for August 2024

August Synopsis

Earlier this month, I created a post celebrating American Artists Appreciation Month, promising to share a few of my artist friends, their backstories, and their beautiful creations. Soon after, I made a few calls and extended an invitation to some fantastic talent, inviting them to share their work with my readers. I was ecstatic with the response, and over the following few days, I received several emails and miles of images to share – so many that, in many cases, it was hard to pick which ones to use.

With American Artist Appreciation Month now concluded, I am happy and grateful with the artists who have participated in sharing their art throughout August. Throughout August, I have featured a dozen artists’ passion and dynamic work, celebrating everything from abstract art to illustration, jewelry and music, and a wide collection of fantastic stories. I encourage you to click the links below or scroll through my POSTS & UPDATES directory to see their fantastic creations and read their stories. The artist’s web links and social media are included, so be sure visit them online for more information.
