Natasha Wescoat, the blonde coifed Michigan contemporary artist is winning the attention of both schools worldwide and the Hollywood film industry. Since 2004, Natasha's work has surged in acclaim and adoration within the US and abroad with 1000 original works sold, being the hugest accomplishment under her belt. Her success as an artist has inspired the popular e-guide books, "Secrets of Powerselling Artists" and "Passion of Art". In October 2006, Extreme Makeover Home Edition approached Natasha to create art for an upcoming episode. "Extreme Makeover Home Edition is one of my favorite shows on Sunday nights to watch. Very moving. I actually got to become a part of that experience. I was very happy to be asked to be part of the show.", the artist says. Since then, Natasha has become one of Art.com and Sistino.com's best-sellers, being chosen as one of the successful artists presented in their upcoming media campaign. In the future, you may be seeing this artist talking on your television. Wescoat 's art has been acquired for educational publishings in elementary and college level textbooks. She receives inquiries by art students in the US as well as the UK and Europe, and was honored with a London classroom named after her. "To have students in elementary through college doing class reports on me is still pretty surreal to me. I feel that I'm just a youngin'. I can't wait to see what else comes!", Natasha exclaims.
This year, she will be joining the likes of O'Keefe and Mondrian as one of the Artists of Distintion on Abrakadoodle.com . Children ages two to twelve and their parents will learn about Natasha Wescoat in classrooms worldwide through Abrakadoodle's comprehensive art instruction. The Abrakadoodle Artist of Distinction Program features the work and techniques of contemporary artists in a broad range of specialties from wildlife painting to book illustrations.
In addition, Wescoat will be sharing her experience and marketing advice with artists and designers in the upcoming 2008 Artists and Graphic Designers Market book.
"It's always been in my nature to teach and to inspire." Because of the growing need to inform and teach artists and art students, Natasha has relaunched her videoblog on the popular YouTube.com website ( http://www.youtube.com/postmodernartist ) and on Blip.tv (http://postmodernartist.blip.tv) . Wescoat offers art tutorial videos, teaching videos, and even includes her personal vlogs and silly rantings. "At the rate in which my art is gaining notoriety, I feel it's important to keep the facts out there and to help others who want to learn and who are inspired by me. It's part of who I am to use my creativity in different media.", she adds. "I've decided to let myself get back into other media and create art, create videos, and put myself out there. Videoblogging is a great way to connect with people online."
Now, you will be seeing Natasha's art in an upcoming Twentieth Century Fox 2000 Picture. Bigger and brighter things are happening with this artist.
