Web Awakening Network / Artistic Survival Kit / Think Tank

How to deal with the hectic of modern days life from an artistic Point of View..

Artists for Artists Network inspired by the World Economic Crisis aiming to counter negative developments in Art and Society.

The Myth of the starving Artist

Starvation, unfortunately, didn't improve art. It only hindered it. A man's soul was rooted in his stomach. A man could write much better after eating a steak and drinking a pint of whiskey... The myth of the starving artist was a hoax.

- Charles Bukowski, Factotum.

This network is in affiliation with Planet ArtVLOG 's Naked Artist Virtual Magazine and 'REMIXed', a new POWERPAINTER Studio project.

Why did I create this site? some history about my web movements.

Message to our Members!

Dear Members of the Web Awakening Network, i just changed the sites settings: from now on unauthenticated visitors can only view the frontpage, people need to create an account before watching the rest of the site! It's an experiment to get more members, but if you, members, disagree because the profiles are inaccessable i sghall change it back and open up again!

Sincerely,

Marcus van Soest,
initiator of this network...
