About the Author
In the irreverent Benicia, California traditions of artists Robert Arneson, Manuel Neri and Judy Chicago, sculptor and painter Marques Vickers, born in 1957, has chosen this "City by the Bay" (San Pablo Bay) to specialize in his figurative abstractive forms on canvas and three-dimensional sculptural formats.
Since initiating his professional art career in 1996, Vickers has introduced four sculptural lines including Steel Assemblages, Iconic Totems, Neo-Archetype and Feng Shui themes. As a painter, Vickers' work has evolved towards a liberated expression of Figurative Abstraction. His principle sculptural influences incorporate Constantin Brancusi, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Arp, Henry Moore, George Segal, Neri and Arneson. Figurative painting influences include European abstractionists Concha Benedito and Luciano Castelli
A native of nearby Vallejo, California, Vickers is a 1979 graduate of Azusa Pacific University and has completed postgraduate work at the University of Bourgogne in Dijon, France. His professional career has included executive positions with the Burbank, California Chamber of Commerce and travel industry along with several entrepreneurial enterprises.
Vickers has been represented in galleries, major art shows and exhibitions internationally and currently participates in over 30+ international auction sites and business exchanges. He was recently showcased at the MAC21 Contemporary Art Fair (Marbella, Spain) and EXPOART 2000 (Cologne, Germany). His work has been profiled extensively in the print and electronic media. His art website, launched in November of 1999 has earned numerous awards for design and content. He currently conducts seminars on selling art on the Internet for visual artists in conjunction with the US Small Business Administration and publishes a monthly ezine distributed internationally to the art trade community.

This review is from: Selling Art On The Internet (CD-ROM)
This book is aimed at artists who want to open new markets for their work via the Internet. The book is easy to read and has some good advice for artists who want to market their own work on the Internet. It is suitable for readers who are not particularly Internet savvy as it explains terms clearly and avoids jargon. A useful guide for artists who want to expand their markets into cyberspace and aren't sure where to start.
