For the
last couple of months I’ve been assisting an old high school buddy with taking
his art career to the next level. Given that I’ve grown into a social media
junkie, I’m also consulting on his social media presence and how to polish up
his personal brand and message.

| Shades by DWats |
No, I’m not an art curator, nor an art expert,
but I did take plenty of art history classes in college which taught me how to
appreciate the art scene. But, before I could help my friend I had to educate
myself on what the art world is all about, specifically the African American
art scene. The ultimate goal is to get his work into notable art galleries and
in front of the eyes of perspective collectors. Yes, Shades is by DWats.
Given
that I love to read and research, I decided to head to Barnes & Nobles to
pick up a couple of books on African American artists. I was surprised that I
couldn’t find one book on the topic in B&N’s art section. They probably
just sold out…besides I only went to one B&N.
