In the wake of world wide economic crisis, the ability for an artist to get a loan for a mortgage or small business is near impossible, thus rendering artists unable to live an equally fulfilling life compared to someone working for a corporation. Also, the basic education of how to manage tax information such as write-offs (milage, instruments, paints, cameras, etc.) would be awesome. It would be cool if tools were provided like spreadsheets, forms, and other record-keeping tools were provided. Finally, artists rely on networking and all forms of socializing with other artists as well as buyers. A forum associated to this website for artists or people looking for artists in the area would be ideal.
