Your ticket to the inner circle. Having started as self-made artists without rich sponsors to back us, we know how hard it is for small artists to get their work out there.

It's the jump start that you need to the world of people who make a living selling their art work. |
and get your art career a jump start with a massive international exposure
galleries = no result
Featuring = Massive Exposure
When we started as individual artists we were
FED UP
with all those expensive galleries, art shows and fairs. The only point of them was to squeeze money
dry from the beginning artists. Ridiculous application fees, hassles with shipping and handling,
broken frames, destroyed and lost art work... you name it, we've seen it all.
What they all concentrate on is squeezing money from the artist instead of trying to help him.
That's why our vision was materialistic but BOLD. We help artists to SELL their artwork.
Our goal is transparent - we want to help you get exposure in order to sell your work.
We are neither a charity nor we are an online gallery with its only purpose to showcase
your artwork to your Mom and kids. Our mission is to get you serious international
exposure and
connect the artists with the buyers and collectors.
our international book so successful.
Each year we receive over 3500 applications from all over the world... USA, UK,Germany, Australia, France, Portugal, Spain, Canada, even Japan and China! The list goes on and on!

Many of you know how hard it is to get noticed in the world of art. Developing a style and perfecting it take years of hard work. The "Inspiration Art book" pleasantly surprised me with the quality of their book. It showcases leading contemporary world artists, from world recognized names to fresh undiscovered talents. It's a real honor to be in such a company! Thanks to Inspiration Art Book I was invited to an exhibition in San Antonio Gallery which had great success and helped me sell several of my paintings. Now I start receiving all kinds of offers from buyers, collectors and art dealers which already led to several promising contacts and new sales! |

Hi It's Nataly, I am a beginner artist and a home stay mom.. Well as you might guess I have been really struggling to get any exposure for my artwork.
I simply didn't have the time and money to visit all those expensive art shows and get involved with the galleries. I never thought I had any chance to get my art work to the next level...
Until I finally got featured in the International Art book Inspiration last year. Well it was not simple and they have strict judges to pass, but if you get accepted it really
takes your art to the next level and gives you opportunity to sell your work!! Thank you guys! Planning to apply again for next year volume! |

I am Fay from Oregon... I've been a successful artist locally, I
participated in a lot of local galleries and art shows but I always
struggled to find international exposure for my artwork. I tried
several online art resources and art shows but the competition is
simply too great and it's hard if not impossible to get noticed.
"Inspiration art book" was the key that opened the doors for me for
international art buyers and collectors. I could finally start
receiving the order from all over the world: UK, Germany, Canada even
Australia.. The quality of print is surprisingly high, I am impressed
by quality thick glossy paper they use and it looks really
professional when i show it to the galleries and my colleagues.
If you are trying to get noticed and start selling your artwork
internationally, "Inspiration" book is a way to go guys! |

I'm a successful artist guys but it was not like this all the time, there were times where I really struggled.. "Inspiration Art Book" really helped me to get the initial exposure that i needed at that time! It literary opened me the doors to the art galleries and collectors! If you are struggling to get "out there" and get yourself noticed, get on board for this book, you wont regret it! Cheers! |

I was hesitant to participate at first, as the fee was pretty high
and I did not have much to start with. So I did my research and found
out that most galleries charge you ridiculous fees just to be featured
for a month - and the exposure does not come even close to what I
could get from the international art book "Inspiration" that is
distributed to thousands of galleries, not just one! So I gave it a
try, and honestly I was amazed by the response I got. Yesterday I sold
my first painting for $2,499 to a private collector from Texas. It's a
good start, isn't it |

Hi guys, I am Andrea, I am doing acrylic paiting and hand made jewerly.. I live in Romania and here it is very hard for me to get any international promotions for my art... I tried to submit to online galleries, facebook, etsy... but with no results. My family did not take my work seriously as well.
When I got featured in the "International Art book Inspiration", finally I start to received the orders and even got a call from the collectors interested in young talents.. Now I am making around 6 thousand euros per month from my art and it's a good income for my country! Thank you for this opportunity! |

"When I just started I'd been trying to approach numerous art shows and galleries for years with my own portfolio, but I had no results.
Only after I got featured in the "International Art Book: Inspiration" they started to take me seriously as a professional artist.. Now I am selling around 3-4 paintings per month and the book featuring really helped me to get it started! Thank you!" |
Lisa, London, UK |

I was sceptical first but decided to give it a try anyways. Once I got featured in the book, my sales really went through the roof. Before "Inspiration art book" i was selling 1 painting per month, now 3-4 per week, and that's a just a beginning! thank you guys!" |

I am an artist from Britain. I dont really often give testimonials but "International Art book Inspiration" really helped me get started when needed to spread

..You know guys, as a private art collector I am always on a lookout for a fresh talent and cutting edge trends and this "Inspiration art book" is one of those places where I look first. Every year I am one of the first to get a copy of the book before the rest of the world to make sure I don't miss an opportunity to get in touch with the undiscovered talented artists. So if you an artist who is just starting out and looking to sell your artwork or an already established name and searching for potential contacts and want to make a serious impression on the collectors and galleries, trust me, you really must be in the book like this.. |

It's Jimmy from LA.. You know guys.. The "Inspiration" book really exceeded my expectations. Quality print, solid paper; it looks very professional and perfect. But most importantly, since my work featured in the volume, I started to receive offers from galleries and art collectors. Now I get more offers than I can physically fulfill. I think it's time for me to expand the art shop and hire some help! |

Ola, I am Pablo, I am an artist.. I'd been trying to approach some galleries for years with my own printed portfolio, but I had no results. They all said, "We will call you," but you know, nobody took me seriously.
It was only when I got featured in the "Inspiration Art book" and brought it with me that they finally looked at me with interest. To say I am grateful is to say nothing.
I am really happy and it opened doors for me to the BIG world. Now I am selling around 4-5 paintings per month. Before I was selling 1 painting per year and really struggling to do even that. Get featured guys, you won't regret it. Gracias |

You know, art is and always has been my life. When I was a child,
I dreamed of becoming a professional artist. However, getting
from the dream to the reality is always the problem, isn't it? The
First, there's the honing of one's art. Working on basic skills until
they become second nature. Finding a medium. Developing a
style and then perfecting it through years and years of hard
work. There is no substitute for these years of effort, and they
rarely provide much in the way of
financial reward.

But what about after that period-when your art is good, but your market hasn't grown with it?
Most, if not all, of you know just how hard it is to get noticed in the art world.
There are so many artists around the world, clamouring for the attention of a relative few
The Inspiration Art book pleasantly surprised me;
not just with the quality of the book itself,
but with the quality of the artwork in it. The book showcases leading contemporary world artists,
from names recognized around the world to fresh, undiscovered talents.

It's a real honor to be in such a company! But for me however, that's not the most important thing: results matter the most to me.
Thanks to the Inspiration Art book, I was invited to an exhibition
in San Antonio Gallery. It was a great success and helped me sell
several of my paintings. I'm grateful and I wish all the artists a successful and fulfilling career! |

 María de la Luz was born in Montevideo on October 19th, 1979. Already during her childhood, she discovered a strong desire of expressing herself through art. She attended several workshops with different renowned art masters in Montevideo. While in college she also studied architecture and graphic design, thus adding a new dimension to her art. In 2012, she was awarded a Golden Medal for her work "Sureño" during an art show in Rio de Janeiro - Brazil. This was the main starting point for her international career. She has since exhibited her art in several art shows, including New York, Miami and Monaco. Her art captures the essence of life in an abstract yet vibrant and engaging way, carrying her deepest feelings and emotions, but still transmitting peace and harmony. As to her technique, she works with multiple materials to create different types of textures and unique colors without a brush. Indeed, all her work, from fully abstract to very detailed and figurative pieces are done by using only a palette knife. Today María de la Luz has her own studio where she continues creating magnificent pieces of art. |

 I love art because it does not have any borders and it speaks to all. A fascination with geometric shapes and color has always been at the core of my work. Gradient coloring and manipulating shapes is ever-present throughout my portfolio. Cubism and Italian Futurism are genres that inspire my work. A hybrid form of Futuristic-Cubism comes out in my paintings. It creates a unique dynamic. I paint when I feel inspired, that is why each of my paintings have spots of good and bad feeling. My paintings transform a lot during the process. |

 Born on 11th August 1947 in Škofja Loka in Slovenia. Pavel Florjančič attended the School of Graphics and Design and graduated from the Pedagogic Academy of Art in Ljubljana. He has been working as a painter since 1975. You can find his paintings in various private and public collections from Western Europe to USA. His whole life Pavel Florjančič has been in search of universal beauty. He has chosen his own subtle way and thus taken his place on the wide range of different Trompe-l˙oeil painters and the super-hyper and photo realism |

 My perception of the world is always from a comical point of view. Spending a considerable part of my life in different countries and absorbing various cultures and historical backgrounds, I have reached the conclusion that what matters the most,is the human ability to laugh. I use a grotesque as a tool of social commentary, not to criticize, but to amuse and entertain. I'm also blending humour with serious things in an effort to translate daily life in to magic and fantasy . By combining all possible media I am creating my own world. |

 Good day, Let me take you on a journey of energy and creation.The most important feature in my work is the energy flowing, I feel it and I convey it in my work. As art is creative, it is good to concentrate on a positive energy thus expand it.
My motto is 'Let's paint a better world'. Be positive, be creative, and share it. |
     |
 My current works consist of large paintings, 5’ x 4’, but still keeping my unique technique of brilliant color combinations that present a kaleidoscopic collision of art and life. My goal is to dazzle the eye and lift the soul using a contrast between my bright colors and a world of untold drama, drawing you into stories from my dreams. |

 With a feeling for contracts, he transforms daily themes into bold and different but pleasantly accessible images. Colorful, with obvious Latin American influences. With a lack of respect for the academic straightjacket of perspective. Briels is a sculptor and painter. He creates glass sculptures and design furniture, and his signature is and will always be a cheerful and optimistic outlook on life. |

 For me painting is something to look forward to. I especially love plein
air painting. There is nothing better than going out to paint on a nice
day. By the time my easel is set up everything comes to life. You can
hear the leaves rustling in the trees, you can hear insects and birds,
and my intense focus on the subject I am trying to portray seems to
amplify the beauty of my surroundings even more.I have always loved
art, but my motivation to paint as much as I can began in November 2009,
the first time I took my pastels with me on a holiday. I spent three
weeks along the Great Ocean Road. The weather was perfect, and by chance
I managed to do a weekend workshop at the Anglesea Artist's Society
(Victoria, Australia) with the famous pastel painter Maxwell Wilks. A
real bonus!I only paint with pastel. The colors are so vibrant. I
mostly paint landscapes and farm scenes. Putting cattle or sheep into a
landscape brings a painting to life. My ambition is to travel and paint.
First Australia and then the world. I love to paint!

 "Hi, my name is Hailary. I found a love of drawing when I was only 6 years old and my love of art continues to this very day! My styles range in many directions, but I have to admit that acrylic painting is my favourite. I enjoy painting flowers and landscapes.
One day while I was looking for a new direction, I decided on trying one more style. The style I chose is actually a combination of paint and crystals such as the Swarovski crystals and was thoroughly amazed at the end result. "
Hailary has participated in several major international galleries and art shows such as Galeria Aberta Galleries, Vera International Art Festival, Lisbon, LA International Art Show. |

 Sparkling like a birthday cake, my artworks are instantly appreciated
for their chromatic arrangements of sweet subjects combined with serious
motifs, creating an instantly recognizable synergy of cool elegance and soft
sensuality. The paintings are strongly influenced by the fantastic world of
cartoons, pop culture, rock music, and worldwide media, all contributing to a
unique aesthetic creation. It’s as if fifty years of world history has been
squeezed into one frame; as if time and space had collapsed like an over
stuffed hard-drive, the electronic bugs now in charge of it's fractured state.
With bold colors, cartoon styling, strident collage and ghoulish rendering of
the sacred and profane, these pictures are made to grab your attention and
create pure joy for the eyes.
The paintings are multilayered, both visually and conceptually.
You are first overcome by the colors: glossy, shinning, and brilliant, after
you discover the real matter, the sense. The working process emploies a
“ready-made” method. All pictures are
grabbed by Internet, “surfing” on the Net.
Working with realistic as well as re-invented
images, the paintings play with balance and dynamics, coupling and contrasting
opposites such as the real versus the fantastic or our positive and negative
associations of an image, which both confirm and contradict their relative
natures. However, my work
chooses, arranges, matchs, adds and stratifies with the objective of making us to
think and, hopefully finding some answers, while having fun. |

 Tomonori Nishimura was born in Japan in 1978. In 1994, after graduating Junior High School, he left Japan and came to the UK. He felt Japanese education system is far too standardized where all students must study the same subjects. Timetable was mostly literature, mathematics, history, chemistry, biology, politics and only few hours for art and music.“Art is philosophy.”, says Tomonori. This realisation directed him to fine art from fashion design. After completing his A-levels, Tomonori remained in Cambridge and studied art foundation. He developed the concept of nature and culture and the technique of metal flower painting at this point. Then, in 1998, he moved to London to study at Chelsea College of Fine Art.Tomonori developed the style of Ginkgo Ferrum series, more abstract than representational, with strong stroke marks and image of ginkgo reflected on brush marks.The new styles, metallic painting of endangered plant and Ginkgo ferrum, are better received than his previous style of metallic flowers among galleries, curators and art publishers. He began to receive more opportunities of exhibition and art fairs worldwide.Tomonori is currently developing a new style, Bubble City. It’s based on structuralistic concept. An expression of reality, perception, systems and nature.I want to express the harmony of nature and society in various styles. Work of metallic painting of endangered species has materialistic view that integrates natural environment and industrial development. Most of flowers in my painting are extinct in the wild. They are cultivated by people and protected from extinction yet the cause of the extinct in the wild may be loss of nature caused by social development. Ginkgo series explores about life, evolution and civilization. Ginkgo is an endangered species and most ancient tree in the world existing since Jurassic era. Bubble City has more metaphysical view involving the concept of real and process of recognition. Nature/Society relation is thought as prior and post states of socialization. The validity of socialization is questioned through the use of bubble. |

 My art vision is for collectors and non-collectors to see how combining many shapes form a unique outlook on how you see animals. Drawing and Painting those many shapes to create that fur or feathers and by using different sizes, colors to help with that decision. To make each piece jump out in excitement! |

 Dorothy uses a soft orange canvas and presets the image in black acrylic in my under-painting. Using the black helps me set the shadows, and it helps with the depth perception that I am trying to grasp. I mix my own colors to create a much softer tone to the piece.
My work is a combination of scenery, animals and people. I enjoy painting the events of life in the 21st century. I love to make people smile with my art, to communicate with them directly and inject a feeling of joy into their day. I get a lot of ideas from watching my children and grandchildren just living and enjoying their lives- this is a message I want to share with my audience. |
     |
 People fascinate me, and in my art I strive to portray the personality traits that make human beings so uniquely engaging; my little grandson searching his mother's face for reassurance, for guidance, and with the expectancy of another "do it together" experience; the instant rapport and sense of camaraderie between farmers from opposite sides of the world meeting for the first time. The paintbrush is often mightier than the pen! |
     |
 My paintings tell stories by focusing on what is important in life-- social, political and personal issues that affect us all. I portray objects that symbolize these issues, combined in purposeful ways, often against black backgrounds in order to focus complete attention on them, as if illuminated by spotlight. Even though certain subject matters and the circumstances or situations they represent may be difficult for some to contemplate, I seek the beauty within them regardless.
By painting portraits of common things, I remove all connotations that may relate to specific people, places or times. It is the universality of these symbols and what they represent that is significant-- to all of us, no matter who we are. At the same time, I paint in such a way that these compositions can be taken entirely at face value and appreciated on purely aesthetic terms, as classic representational still-life’s, without the necessity of referencing anything beyond that. But the invitation is always extended to explore as deeply and thoughtfully as one might wish. |

From the year 198 I participate in art fairs and exhibitions organization in Lithuania and abroad.
Since 2007 up to 2013 I worked at professor at art Academy Crosne,
France.
In the last years I have been focusing on research and deepening
My sight to the whole world is expressed through the colors.
Transparency and light, always ubiquitous. I think this is reflection of the visible world, but is also about escaping the mystery of our existence which is usually invisible for humans eyes. It feels like the bottom of our soul.
Real objects in my paintings are messengers of life, the footprints of our dreams and ourselves, witnesses of our time on this Earth, as Scriptures hint their story.
My research focuses on the artistic brilliance of colors, lights and calligraphy. Relatively abstract phenomenon and universal form inspires me to capture on few main things - I am looking for depth and transparency in my paintings.Magical Scriptures immerse myself in the desire of bringing up the message that symbolizes our existence and our creativity. I'm writing anything specific: observer can look at the table in the way he likes, what he see, so I am trying to unleash his imagination... |

 I started in 2012 with my first photoshoots at the models' home and I still do. This means that I always take my portable homestudio with me. It also means that because of the different sized rooms, I need to set up my lighting. That's one part of the creative process for setting the mood of the image. The second part of the process is creating the image(s) in collaboration with both the model and - if involved - the make-up artist; this already starts before the actual photoshoot. An image is in my opinion the sum of these three parts and every part is important. I'd like to raise the bars everytime. Most important to me is to get connected with the main subject via the eyes as they are the mirror of the soul.
In the postproduction the third and last part of the creative process takes place. Being a perfectionist this can take up to eight hours or more for one single image. I always develop the negative (RAW) image to get the best out of the photo. Beside that there's also a great part of retouching involved without losing the characteristics of the model. After that comes the real creative flow by colortoning the image and/or adding textures to the background to deliver the image as I imagined it in my head. |

Depends on my mood and what is going on inside me at the time,I paint in a wide range of styles, from realism, to impressionism to abstract. My Passion is painting with nail polish.

 I have been described as multifaceted, having a rewarding career in the arts. That being true, however my main accomplishments have been in Visual Art, with a long time devoted to painting and printmaking. The endeavours in my designing has complimented and inspired my focus as an artist. I have been fortunate to have been an art advisor for our Ontario, Canada Arts Council. I have received awards in painting, photography and for designing. My limited edition prints are in private and corporate collections, worldwide, and I have been commissioned to create art prints for special events and causes, often for the purpose of fundraising.
My University degrees are in art and art history. I have retired a bit early from University/College art instructing to pursue more world travels.
I have visited 5 continents already, but now have much more time to photograph, already motivated to author a fourth book. Travel is not just about a place, but new ways of perceiving, influenced by other cultures. I am still challenging the limits of printmaking using my computer, creating digital artworks, often producing only one unique print. At this time travel brings me to International solo and group art exhibitions, being ongoing, represented in new places in the Caribbean, Europe and more U.S. cities. My art has evolved exploring more abstract style, still a fusion, with elements of recognized figures within. My art has remained bold and colourful, with perhaps more patterns and textural features, still being expressive. I continue to challenge the limits of my art process. My love of creativity is shaped by the fact that learning never stops, as artistic possibilities are endless. |
     |
 Deep and complete knowledge of my profession are proven by long years during which I was learning and improving myself as a professional.
My creative work is first of all characterized by many exhibitions, publications and positive feedback from students, colleagues and art critics.The basis of everything still remains academic professionalism. Even it is not a leading value in the arts currently – good master of his handcraft should combine talent and professionalism. It is definitely an advantage and provides additional quality to the work results. |

 I think that absolute freedom in art is no more than a mirage. Like a vanishing point, not only it is not achievable, but also constant strive for being totally uninhibited fundamentally contradicts the very nature of art. I discovered that by trying to free myself I instead only created un-freedom within, but at the same time I recognized it as a blessing because this un-freedom, to my great surprise, flowered into my very own freedom. I built my personal space inside it, I fenced in all I was made of and then I gladly confined myself into this space and opened all the windows to share what’s inside with others.This is the moment of great joy for me because this space has never existed before I have created it. Not unlike theater, my work attempts to counterpart outside reality with no ambition to compete with it. It is just a window into my parallel world, my very own, not so little Universe. |

 I was born in Leningrad, USSR (now Sankt Petersburg, Russia). Graduated from Moscow State University with a degree in International Economics. I have also attended the art studios at Moscow State University and the Moscow House of Scientists. After 1989 painting became my main professional occupation. Since then I have had no fewer than fifteen personal exhibitions. |

 Art is a spiritual language I use to communicate with people, no matter what language they speak. My work is about reaching every single heart by touching the deepest sanctuaries of the human soul. I invite viewers of my paintings to feel a higher awareness of light and reality. |

 Denisa specializes in the creation of large relief sculptures combining classical and contemporary materials and techniques. Large and imposing while poetic and feminine, Denisa's art is intended to be spiritually healing and powerful in its symbolic intension. Using clay as the canvas on which she communicates, the artist offers us imagery that is vibrant with mystical and historical elements. She puts forward an iconography that is timeless and strongly feminine, while rich in technique and intention. Through her work, she offers a very personal look into the necessity to contrast past with present, personal with universal, reality with dream state. |

 I believe art heals. A holistic therapist and artist, I developed my unique technique and style “Healing Arts” which can enhance healing to those in need, and become a vehicle for emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Coming from a family of scientists, I've always been fascinated by the left and right brain relationship which led me to study many things - from mathematics and science to psychology, therapy and healing to fine art, and finally create my venue "Healing Arts". I am bringing together Fine Art, Expressive Arts, and the Art of Healing, by integrating healing frequencies of color, positively charged intention, embedded spiritual messages, and energetically balanced composition. My passionate powerful art is better experienced “in-person” due to live vibrations of bright colors, heavy textures, usually large size, and just an overall charisma and high energy. "Healing Arts" is shown in many physical and online galleries, cities, states, magazines, articles, catalogs, major Shows (SPECTRUM Miami, ArtEXPO NY, and others). This year I am creating on a large scale - a big Project "ArtSynergism" where I collaborate with another artist, a legendary Garsot, in a very unique way - we pioneer in establishing a new Art Movement “ArtSynergism”. (www.ArtSynergism.com). There's no known equivalent of creating art the same way - together, simultaneously, on the same canvas, spontaneously, allowing each other's creativity to flow uncensored by another. So far we've created 10 large canvases (48"x48" each) for the Collection “Muses & Music”, and a large 2-sided Screen (8 x10 feet each side), all of which was unveiled in SPECTRUM ArtBasel Miami 2016, Booth #111.

 I believe any work of art has beauty when the elements of the composition achieve a harmonic and structural unity. I strive to accomplish this by the brush strokes that I uses in the creation of the painting. I am not striving for photo-realism. My aim is to paint what I see as accurately as I can, and also to communicate an atmosphere of color, light and a timeless feel. I use thick heavy brush strokes to give breath and movement to each painting. Light is used to guide the viewers eye to elements of the painting. Pointing them to selected objects so they may see the common in a new or distinctive way. My struggle as an artist is to always go further in this pursuit, to enriches my work with a look of understood reality but still have a ambiguous element. So that the viewer might envision more than a single interpretation, not just literal or realistic but metaphoric or abstract. |

 I've always loved art, music and dance. When I capture joyful and moving moments of life in my pictures, I mix the shining colors for my art according to these moments. For me there is a parallel between the harmony of colors and harmony of musical intervals. Both have the power to stir strong feelings in us. Both color and music sweep the dust from our soul and make us come alive. |

Inspiration Book Committee:
You know guys, when I was starting out as an individual artist
40 years ago
with no money
and no connections in the art world, I was struggling for years trying to get 'out there', to get
noticed and get my artwork sold... but in vain.
Let's face it, being an artist is not just a bed of roses and a "higher calling of inspiration". It's a tough and competitive business, and if we're really honest with each other, all of us are in it to become famous and make money by selling our artwork.
Isn't it great to make a living by doing what you love and do best: painting? For the most artists, though, this dream never turns into reality.
For years I was trying to get out there, into the "inner circle" of those magical high end
artists who make millions selling their art. And those news of another person with
record breaking sales numbers did not make me sleep any easier.
Paul Gauguin's art was sold for a staggering
300 million
,
Pablo Picasso's for
180 million
,
Jackson Pollock's for
163 million
...
and that famous "The Scream" - you know, for
123 million
.
But the truth is, I was nowhere near that. We're certainly not talking millions - the truth is, I couldn't sell one damn painting in years of trying! I know most of you are in the same boat now. There was nobody to give me a hand, no way to get my name out there. I tried and tried and tried and finally I was really FED UP with all those expensive galleries, art shows and fairs. The only point of them was to squeeze money from the beginning artists. Ridiculous application fees, hassles with shipping and handling, broken frames, destroyed and lost art work... you name it, I've seen it all. What they all concentrate on is getting money from the artist instead of trying to help him.
That's how the idea of creating Inspiration: International Art Book was born
7 years
ago.
Starting with a small book of just 30 featured artists, we quickly gained world
recognition as an international brand and became an industry standard,
a vehicle for emerging and mid-career artists to quickly get their name
and artwork out to the world.
We receive over
3,500 applications
from artists, distribute
45,000 books
to galleries around the world, and
send out 1,750 books
to world-class collectors... every single year. Oh boy, this book is gaining so much momentum!
And today, you can be a part of this success story!
Inspiration: International Art Book is your JUMP start into the world of art!
That's why our vision is materialistic but BOLD. We help artists to SELL their artwork. Our goal is transparent - we want to help you get exposure in order to sell your work. We are neither a charity nor we are an online gallery with its only purpose to showcase your artwork to your Mom and friends. Our mission is to get you serious international exposure and connect the artists with the buyers and collectors.
That's what has made our international book so successful. Each year we receive over
3,500 applications
from all over the world: USA, UK, Germany, Australia, France, Portugal, Spain, Canada, even Japan and China! The list goes on and on!
Here are three reasons that it's a MUST for you to be in the book:
1. Get your artwork to buyers and collectors.
We accept only artists who plan to SELL their work internationally and make serious money with it. If you are painting as a hobby and never plan to sell your work, this is not for you.
2. Become a world-recognized name
Adding a serious book to your portfolio raises your profile in the eyes of collectors and potential buyers.

3. Your ticket to the inner circle
This book is your ticket to the inner circle. It's the jump start that you need into the world of people who make a living selling their art work.
Over the years "Inspiration" has become a handbook for every professional collector looking for fresh new names in the world of art. They are looking for you! You just need to help them find you!
It's time for you to take action now and become a part of our next volume! Each year we publish only a single volume, and with over 3,500 applications and strict judges, we might not even be able to accept your application. As I said, this is only for serious artists who want to jump start their career in order to sell their art work in future! If you are one of them, you are welcome to apply!

Our business model is different from other art publishers. Our goal is not to make profits from the book sales, but instead to reach the MAXIMUM distribution possible to ensure the maximum exposure for our featured artists. We supply our book to the world's leading galleries, fairs, private collectors and agencies to give you a kick start in your professional art career.
We take the process of selecting artists very seriously. Every artist must pass serious jury qualifications to ensure only best of the best are featured in our book.Let me quickly explain. There are two types of publishers. The first type accepts everyone for free and these things generally happen:
-
You get in for free then you have to pay for your copy of the book.
Don't be naive! There is no free cheese, and if you got in for free then someone still needs to pay for the production of the book. Instead of distributing the book to collectors, buyers and galleries, the publisher will try to sell you YOUR OWN book after it prints it. This sounds like a vanity fair and it does not end up giving you any promotion or exposure for your artwork! -
The quality of the book suffers.
Since the publisher gets no funds upfront, no serious investment can be made in the book production. Such free books usually look like a cheap journal at best. Our Inspiration Book is of a quality that costs a lot of money to print. You just can’t print a high-quality book for the price of a journal. -
The quality of artwork in the book suffers.
When people get in for free, they don’t take the endeavour as seriously: that's just the reality of life. Free books end up with a lot of poor quality artwork. They’re not juried, and recognized artists are not keen to participate in such a cheap publication. That leaves you competing only with amateurs.
The bottom line is: such "free" books are not distributed to the collectors and galleries, but post-sold to the artists themselves and their families. Instead of promoting your artwork, the ‘free’ publisher will be saying to you, “Why not buy 10 copies yourself?” They can’t distribute the book for free, because sending to hundreds and thousands of collectors and buyers has real costs – just think about shipping and handling charges!
That’s why our business model is different from other art publishers. Our goal is not to make profits from the book sales, but instead to reach the MAXIMUM distribution possible to ensure the maximum exposure for our featured artists. We supply our book to the world's leading galleries, fairs, private collectors and agencies to give you a kick start in your professional art career.
We take the process of selecting artists very seriously. Every artist must pass serious jury qualifications to ensure only best of the best are featured in our book. Moreover, we won’t be selling your own book to you after publishing. Each artist gets their very own free copy of the Inspiration Art book!
So to answer your question: you are not paying to be featured so much as investing in your art brand, paying for promotion, and getting maximum exposure for your artwork.
However, if you are a beginner artist struggling to get started who wants to be in the book but can’t afford it, please contact us and explain your situation. We’ll do our best to find a great deal with a big discount for you!-
Get your artwork to buyers and collectors
We accept only artists who plan to SELL their work internationally and make serious money with it. -
Become a world-recognized name
Adding a serious book in your portfolio raises your profile in the eyes of collectors and potential buyers. Over 3,500 artists can't be wrong. -
Your ticket to the inner circle
Having started as self-made artists without rich sponsors to back us, we know how hard it is for small artists to get their work out there. All those expensive galleries, art shows, shipping and travel costs make it almost impossible for a little talented artist to get the word out. Our book gets your artwork in front of the right people. - Being featured in our international art book is a professional and prestigious way to present yourself to art galleries, collectors, and agencies. The fact that you passed a serious panel selection alone rises you in the eyes of others when considering your work.
- Increase the commercial value of your work. It's obvious that the more exposure you have, the higher the value of your work. Being featured among other top artists raises your value significantly. Moreover, it provides gallery owners and agencies an easier way to present and sell your work at a higher price.
You will be able to submit your artwork right after your purchase is complete. If your artwork is not yet ready to be submitted, no problem - just book your slot to avoid missing it and submit your artwork later.
Submit your art work in digital format. Simply photograph your work in 300dpi or more and submit the photographs to the manager. No physical shipping is required. Remember, our mission is to help you SELL your art - so make sure each painting you submit is ready for sale and includes the name, description, dimensions, style, medium and most importantly, PRICE!
Format: Send us 4-6 images of your artworks (JPEG in high resolution 300dpi: 17 cms or 6.6" at the longest side).Our main mass print format of the book 288mm x 405mm (11.6 inches x 16.3 inches).
