Art lovers of all interest levels can use the Web to find information on their favorite artists and works, as well as general information on mediums and techniques. The Web has great resources, whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or just an art enthusiast. You can find the going price for your favorite Georgia O'Keefe, or information on the opening of the new Museum of Judaic Art and History in Paris. Stunning images of photojournalism, as well as tutorials for graphic design, are at your fingertips. Auction tracking sites provide sales information for the serious collector, while more general sites can help you remember who painted that piece you found so moving at the Louvre last summer.
Most sites tend to focus on one medium or interest.
For example, photography sites will give you galleries of beautiful artistic images, or skip that entirely for some nuts and bolts instruction and advice. Painting sites may focus on painters famous and obscure, or approach the subject from the viewpoint of the serious collector or museum lover. More hands on sites feature discussion forums for the amateur or professional. Some of these include computer tutorials and links to manufacturers of useful software. The look and content of these sites runs from beautiful to no frills, with most being quite informative and some exhaustive.
