Marks on Canvas client artist Amanda Williams

Bianca has proven to be an invaluable resource in my artistic pursuits. I engaged her services at a moment when I could no longer stay on top of the volume of interest my work was generating. Artists are increasingly expected to manage every component of their artistic practice, often at the consequence of creative production itself. The internet and social media have become a time consuming but integral part of the contemporary art platform. Bianca's expertise in marketing, promotions, social media and time management have allowed me to more effectively share my work while also helping me regain much needed studio time. She is astute, compassionate, professional and smart. Her background in marketing and passion for art are a perfect combination. I'd highly recommend her services.  - Amanda Williams, Visual Artist (www.awstudioart.com
