Is there anyone out there? I have been asked many times by people that I meet and have a web site, they say "Does any one listen? when I send out emails I never know if they read them!." My response is usually Yes they do but only if you have something new to say or to show them something new or updated. It can be hard for some web developers that do not look at statistics of the site. Virtu - Art constantly does this and with the information that comes from the on site search engine we know what you are into and would like to be into.


Today I have looked at the statistics from this last month at present we were receiving daily hits of 1100 a day on the 17th March with the announcement that the exhibition South West Cork Delights went live we had 4754 hits on the 18th March 3659 hits and 19th March 4073 hits. So Yes I can be confident they you are listening and responding to the already great experience of South West Cork Delights Online and @ Doswell Gallery............

Interesting Facts about exhibiting artists

Virtu - Art has gathered a few interesting facts about the exhibiting artists for instance for Susanne Leutenegger, the choice of colour and and more particularly its quality is extremely important. She preferres to mix her own using concentrated pigments, oxides, marble dust and quartz dust binding them with acrylic medium.


Did you know that David Seeger attended school in Bradford alongside his contemporary David Hockney, during which time both were obliged, effectively, to teach themselves art. During the period 1959-61, Seeger exhibited his abstract works at the Young Contemporaries Exhibition, in London, was selected to show at Gimpel Fils Gallery - where he sold his first sculpture for £30 - and showed at the Artists International Association Gallery, London.


Gert J. Van Maanen is now using an alternative colour pallette " Since I am using more dry pigments in my smaller paintings I intend to work with more different colours. So after 25 years it's not only blue and black anymore. " and also recently Gert's work has been part of an Art Crime Fraudulent copies of Gert J Van Maanen's artwork were available for sale on the world wide web.


Nick Taylor finds swimming in deep water terrifying. " Deep water; I admire anyone who swims there. " (odd then maybe his paintings of swimmers is some sort of therapy).


Ros Webb appreciates " all art forms; the good, bad and downright ugly; because for every piece of art (just like for every person); there is someone who loves it. "
