In today’s world an internet presence is more important than ever, yet the technology for creating and hosting a website still eludes many due to its complexity and cost. As an artist, we know you want to concentrate on that which you do best – art.

To help our members Women’s Caucus for Art San Diego (WCA SD) has launched an on-line gallery and exhibition venue. It is our intention to provide a venue to present traditional and non-traditional artwork for our members and to host juried exhibitions for all artists.

In a refreshing departure from traditional gallery operations, artists will not have to play the who-knows-who, elitist game to be featured in this gallery. They will be selected for their talent. Our online art gallery will be dedicated to helping contemporary artists display their original art while making it easier for the public to find them. Use the online gallery to search or browse for original art, then contact the artists or their galleries. We simply highlight the artists and their art. We provide a way to find art, artists, and galleries and help artists promote their contemporary art.

This new on-line gallery is an economical way for women artists to promote their work while participating in WCA SD’s ever growing on-line presence! Artists can market their internet presence as if it were a "stand-alone" web site.

In addition to being an on-line gallery this new platform provides a venue for artists to participate in juried and non-juried exhibitions.

Blackburn has said, “Carving and beading are a focused meditation. My current imagery is related to the garden, farms, and mother nature's divine plants and elemental magic. In nature, I can see/feel the energy, the spirits—the joy sparkles in the light and in the dark under the canopy.

"Her art works are in the Collections of Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Hawaii State Art Museum (HSFCA) and many private companies and collectors.
