Spotlight :: Women’s History Month

National Women’s History Month traces its roots to March 8, 1857, when women from various New York City factories staged a protest over poor working conditions. The first Women’s Day celebration in the United States was in 1909, also in New York City. It began as Women’s History Week but later expanded to a month in 1987. Here at Image Conscious we celebrate the many national and international women artists that we publish.

From Ishita Banerjee’s bold and vivid abstracts, to Lucia Heffernan’s imaginative world where animals truly have a voice – these collections reflect a diverse group of talent in subject to style and technique. Suzanne Nicoll brings us landscapes and abstracts, showcasing her love of pattern and color, and Krista Broadway takes us all over the world with engaging photographs and travel inspiration.

Celebrate women in film, politics, literature and art. And add beauty to your walls with our fine art reproductions.

Spotlight :: Black History Month

Salaam_Muhammad-header

Featuring Artist Salaam Muhammad

Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by Black Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. The theme for Black History Month 2023 is “Black Resistance,” examines how “African Americans have resisted historic and ongoing oppression, in all forms, especially the racial terrorism of lynching, racial pogroms and police killings,” since the earliest days in our nation.

Image Conscious recognizes the achievements of many Black artists in our community; in this Spotlight we are highlighting Salaam Muhammad. Salaam’s art is a celebration of people of color, painted in detail using oils and capturing the profound beauty of life through the combination of color, texture, and symbolism.

As a graduate of Rutgers Mason Gross Art Institute in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Salaam Muhammad got his start producing realism oil paintings as a freshman, and soon after created several pieces for various local businesses. Through his spirituality he discovered the power of art where he could creatively express themes of love, connection, and unity that resonate with everyone. His rising popularity sparked requests for creating art for popular galleries in New York, as well as speaking at various academic institutions.

Continuously striving to be a vessel for positive change and a visionary artist, his creations aim to depict a side of black life rarely seen in the mainstream.

Find the complete collection of Salaam Muhammad’s work and all of our Black voices in our Multicultural category.

Spotlight :: Welcome Summer

Summer has definitely arrived – long days and beautiful summer nights. But sadly, due to the cooler than average temps, our avocados are not ripening as quickly which is considered an emergency in California. But of course, you can get avocado inspired artwork to make you feel better, like Kitchen Avocado by Ayse, and Avocado Toast by Lucia Heffernan. And if aliens and avocados are your thing, there is Alien Avocado by Michael Buxton. So really – there is an avocado for every taste. Enjoy your summer and let us know what you are looking for, we will help you find it.

Spotlight :: Open the Doors

Ok yeah – we are super excited about Spring, and what’s not to love: dining al fresco, daffodils, spring break and colorful and welcoming spring infused wall décor.

Michelle Daisley Moffitt celebrates with Serene – we love the crisp citron green and sky blue tones, while Corina Capri tells us to Open Up – with sublime red and purple botanicals. Sunflowers show us their lovely faces in Sunflowers II from Richard Silver and Peachy Keen No 2 from Suzanne Nicoll delivers a quiet reminder to just chill.

Spotlight :: Black History Month

Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. The Black History Month 2021 theme, “Black Family: Representation, Identity and Diversity,” explores the African diaspora, and the spread of Black families across the United States.

Image Conscious recognizes the achievements of many Black artists in our community; in this Spotlight, we are highlighting Salaam Muhammad. As a teenager, this Missouri based artist discovered through his spirituality the power of art. Just like music, his art has universal appeal. Themes of love, connection, and unity resonate with everyone. With his art, he makes people feel emotions they may have forgotten. By the time he was a young man in his early 20s, he was traveling the country, attending venues and shows. His oil canvas and mixed media paintings speak vibrantly to everyone who comes across them. He can shift styles from photorealistic to cartoon illustrations. In Crown Me Lord – Woman, the artist renders his interpretation of Isiah 62:3 – You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.

Find Salaam Muhammad’s artwork and all of our Black voices in our Multicultural art section.

Spotlight :: Here For You

Dear Customers:

Over the years, many of you have visited San Francisco, to ride the Cable Cars, visit Alcatraz or walk across the Golden Gate Bridge. We’re glad you came!

Now we have a very unwelcome visitor, the Covid-19 virus. In the hopes he finds a chilly reception here, and takes a hike as quickly as possible, the city has shut down his favorite bars, restaurants and shops, and asked all residents to avoid him by staying at home. (We know he’s male; a woman would not be so cruel!)

Of course we’re taking all health precautions. But as long as FedEx and UPS are at work, we remain at work, answering questions, discussing art, offering recommendations, taking orders, sending shipments and handling customer service issues.

Most important, we continue to source art and send out new releases. These can be accessed by going to “Downloads” on our home page, and scrolling down to “Marketing PDF’s.” Our latest release from March 17 includes dazzling images from our popular Fabrikken line.

I would also direct you to our “Collections” function as a way to manage your picks. If you are not sure how to use it, scroll down on this link: https://www.imageconscious.com/category/site-guides. Still have questions? A quick call to one of our reps will cure the problem within one minute!

Finally, while this is not the way we wanted to make national news, we are ever grateful to all of you who have called, expressing concern for our well-being. Every one of you is exemplary of the faith I have in American ingenuity and steadfastness in the face of a crisis. We will get through this!

Stay well,

George
