Launched in January 2008, Artlog is a free, open platform for artists, art professionals, art enthusiasts and regular folks. The platform combines social networking, directory services and user-generated content. The site is publicly accessible (you can sign up for an account post artworks and do about a billion other things), but definitely still in ‘beta’ and development continues; we are constantly making things better and moving quickly toward launching major parts of the site.

Artlog was founded by Dylan Fareed (iamstillalive) and Manish Vora (Nish) in New York City, but the community is unique and growing rapidly.
