Where in Austin?

We’re all based in Austin, TX, but the Austin Artists Market is online only  – a virtual market to promote Visual Art.

Austin Artists Market

Visual art is often side-stepped in the description of Arts in Austin. This usually included music and theater. Here we are promoting visual art and artists. Our eclectic artist group is comprised of artists in various media and subject matter with a wide range of price points. Our main objective is to assist you in finding quality art at galleries and markets that we trust. We believe that buying art is more than just finding a decorative piece – it is the thrill of finding the perfect piece that will accentuate your home or office and provide a pride of ownership that
will last a lifetime.

We’re art enthusiasts and artists. First and foremost, we started as a marketing engine. We know the web, how to grab traffic, etc.  We integrated artists: photographers, designers, galleries, and markets in one easy-to-navigate site. Thankfully, we found that a little promotion goes a long way, and we’ve managed to grow and build our reputation here in Austin.

What is Flemish Art?

Painting, graphic art, and sculpture produced in an area similar in size to that of modern Belgium and Luxembourg, formerly known as the Southern Netherlands. Flemish art assumed a major role in the history of European art during the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries. The largest county in the Southern Netherlands was Flanders and the term Flanders may be used to refer to the whole of the Southern Netherlands, just as Holland has often given its name to the whole of the Northern Netherlands.

Tempera Painting

Tempera was the most used technique from the 12th or early 13th century until the 15th, when it began to give way to oils.  It  is type of painting medium used to bind pigments. Etymology for tempera is from latin word temperare “to mix colors, temper, or regulate”.   Tempera, also known as egg tempera, is a permanent fast drying painting medium consisting of colored  pigment mixed with a water-soluble binder medium (usually a glutinous material such as egg yolk or some other size).
