Ello is The Creators Network, a publishing and collaboration platform connecting and supporting a global community of artists. Founded in 2013 by a collection of artists & designers, Ello re-imagines the future of creative work by providing a contemporary forum and virtual workplace for artists, brands, agencies, publishers, and their fans.
That's what they say anyway. All I know is that I've enjoyed their platform and it's been great to interact with other artists. I also like participating in the regular artist's call opportunities. It helps my writing and thinking about my work sharp.
If you're a visual artist or photographer, I recommend jumping in.

A new beginning. Again.
New website. I had the holiday break to build this website, and a sister graphic design site. A simpler site to let the art just be. I've got a few things to adjust. As always, it will be a constant work in progress. (see also dmdesigninc.com)
