Your Art Image Problems Just Got Fixed

by Carolyn Edlund

Confused or frustrated dealing with images of your artwork? ArtSquare provides a great solution for artists.

I recently found out about ArtSquare and an amazing service they provide which is perfect for readers of Artsy Shark. I know this because I literally spend weeks each year resizing images sent to me from artists who aren’t quite sure how to select, resize, or even locate images of their work. So I spoke with ArtSquare’s CEO Thomas Griffin about their concept and how they work with 2D artists to improve presentation and results.

How will this service resolve problems you have with digital images?

You need storage. ArtSquare stores all of your artwork in the cloud . . . and they do it for free! Griffin explains “We’ve found that artists really dislike managing their art files; so much so that they often avoid doing it completely. We’re constantly developing new ways to simplify this process, saving artists significant time and hassle.

With ArtSquare:

Artists can back up their existing high-res images. We store them securely, and they’ll always have access. We help artists free up and de-clutter their local computer.

We take their high-res images and make various copies that fit artists’needs. Artists don’t have to manually resize their files or dig through old copies to find the one they need. If artists need a medium-resolution jpeg or an Instagram optimized image, it’s just a click away.

Artists can easily share their images with friends, fans, or gallerists.

When artists have new works digitized, their portfolio automatically updates to reflect the new works. We want the whole experience to feel like magic!”

You need better images. Not only that, but you need feedback . . . which they provide for free! Outstanding images of your work are essential because, after all, you’re a visual artist. They must be the best possible representations that you can show the world. Are yours the best they can be?

Griffin clarifies their process, saying “When artists upload their work, we automatically let them know if their files are print ready at various sizes. Instead of asking a printer if the file is appropriate, we’ll automatically pass that info along anytime an artist uploads a work.”
