Visit the online art magazine "Empty Easel"

An in depth "online art magazine with practical advice, tips, and tutorials for creating and selling art" is a good description for this website. It's such a good description that I had to put it in quotes as it is from their homepage. New articles daily, Monday through Friday, plus archives of articles for searching topics you might be interested in.
