Whether you’re an artist who wants somewhere to showcase your work or just someone who appreciates art, the Web site Red Balloo.ning is worth checking out. Dominic Sova, Red Balloo.ning creator, hopes the site will become a central location for people to see the work of local artists.
To set up an account, head to http://redballoo.ning.com and submit your name and e-mail address. From there, artists can post their paintings, photography and other art online. “People can come and share and find each other on the Web site,” Sova says. “If you have access to a computer, you can easily find out about independent shows in Lawrence.”
So far, only about 50 artists are using the site, but Sova hopes this will change soon.
Red Balloo.ning also hosts art shows around Lawrence. After a successful show in February, Red Balloo.ning will host “Fresh Produce,” on April 23 at 6 p.m. on the third floor of Teller’s, 746 Massachusetts St.
