What this group is about, what it represents and

Fine Arts Group is a lens created to showcase the work of fine artists who choose to express themselves in a visual medium. I love the written word but this group is not about that. It's great if you have tee-shirts and mugs for sale and I wish you the best in your endeavors, but this group is not about that either.

Please note, aside from Associations, Competitions, Organizations & Venues only artists are eligible for inclusion in this lens. Third parties, such as agents, fans, galleries or webmasters will not be accepted.
