Artisan Crafts Resources

Journal Entry: Sun Apr 1, 2007, 1:19 PM
Hello there! It's on the OFFICIAL Artisan Crafts 'hub' on dA. Here you can find up to date links to all news articles I and Artisan Crafts are involved in, all sources linked on and offsite by members, features, and basic gallery direction notes (you can also always find this stuff on my page).

To add a resource, please NOTE this group. Comments might be overlooked accidentally, but notes always are read.

Resources
This is where I will post links given to me by site members for continued sourcing of materials, tutorials, etc for AC members to use.

Please note that Resources has updated their Tutorial Section with a section specifically for Artisan Crafts. If you have any tutorials on dA hanging out in Misc., please be kind to our lovely Gallery Directors and move them to the correct category.

    Creating a mandala is a unique method of visual self-expression - an inner self-portrait.
