To promote the oil and acrylic paintings on canvas carried through by Manuel Penha da Graca
Artists and galleries may apply to Bel Art Award Program a very special seal of excellence, increase web exposure by joining Web rings, or simply participating at Bel Art Artists Partners , a link exchange program. Any gallery or artists with a relevant presence in the web is welcome . Each program has its own specific requirements according the main art medium used or the level of art notoriety achieved.
Common visitors may also surf links to the most relevant art resources , international museums , galleries and art directories, give an overview at art history and classic masters paintings, browse some top hit lists of art related sites and give a glance at an exclusive art gallery of oil and acrylic paintings on canvas.
Bel Art Project is a non profit initiative. There are absolutely no costs to join. Regular art links or references are totally free of charges. Special placements of the links displayed in some programs, may require a fee. Other resources listed at several pages Bel Art Project may be sponsored. Those are clearly marked. The income generated from those, reverts in the benefit of the community through investments in web promotion .
The content of Bel Art Web Project is not offensive by common sense, or illegal by international laws.
The original site Bel Art Project was developed in 2003 with the single purpose of simplifying the compilation of the artwork photographs that the author was collecting. The only page available was the art gallery page.
It was quickly retooled when the artist acknowledged that it would make no sense to keep the art gallery sealed and disabled to the general public.
The on line art gallery took off and was later to become a personal online auction. Since that time it has been permanently impacted by those small free features captured in the internet to enrich the sites content and promote the exhibition.
The developments on the art gallery have made it more visited each time. Soon other contemporary artists met it, and several required to be a member, in order to value their art sites and benefit with some new visitors sent by Bel Art Project. Good ranks help their promotion on the web and probably their art sales. Among them were galleries, famous artists and emerging painters, of all genres from landscape, abstract or impressionist to figurative, illustration or portraits, and all mediums from pencil drawing and sketch to oil, watercolours and acrylic painting. Artwork on canvas got the largest share. But deco, pop and religious art or reproduction prints marked their presence.
Bel Art Project had now the ability to build a valuable, intuitive database of artists on a global scale made available to the common person. This create more traffic to all linked art sites which helped to promote fine arts in the web and valuing our own sites with no need to recur to large paid professional art directories and art resources.
At that time has become more relevant the web award program, which winner artists exhibits the Bel Art Excellence Award at their creative sites, and the specialized art webrings begun growing up daily. Those two features definitely launch the Bel Art Project in the web modern art circle.
Next step was to upgrade resources offered to the common visitors. They go away with a positive experience only to return again and again as the relationship grows into a friendship. Often they have became Artists Partners
The new pages dedicated to classic masters of paintings, to the museums, art resources , galleries, directories and art centres, or the art sites top lists, brought great benefit to visitors success in their quest to find the best art sites in this brave new world of the web.
