Detroit, MI (September 30, 2010)-Giving artists a format to showcase has long been a passion for art lover, Kalita Farver.  After unsuccessfully seeking African-American Art to decorate her home, Farver set on a mission to research and later acquire art to sell to those who were facing the same challenge.   Farver will unveil her latest finds on Saturday, October 2 at The Tangent Gallery 715 East Milwaukee, Detroit at 12noon. The free exhibit will feature Atlanta artist and illustrator Jason Phillips. Phillips, originally from Detroit, will display original pieces while networking to bring cultural awareness to the Metro Detroit community.   Author and motivational speaker, Monica Marie Jones of The Literary Loft will be on hand to sign copies of her latest projects including Swag, Floss, and The Ups and Downs of Being Round.   Appetizers and light refreshments will be served.   The Art In Color Grand Opening Celebration Farver hopes that The My Art in Color Grand Opening will inspire other artists to follow their dreams.   For more information visit http://www.myartincolor.com/ or 313-632-8107   Art in Color's mission is to provide positive images of multi-cultural art, home décor and collectibles to multi-cultural people at reasonable prices.   # # #

article: Taxes for Freelancers: 20 Deductions You Should Be Taking And How

Taxes for Freelancers: 20 Deductions You Should Be Taking And How Freelancers have the task of keeping up with deadlines, clients and of course, taxes. Whether you file things monthly or quarterly, it's essential for freelancers to keep up with receipts for tax deductible items. So what qualifies as tax deductible? More than you think. Look to any area where you spend money to make money and you'll have a bountiful list of tax deductions ready to go when April comes around. Debra Parker, of After Hours Accounting, says, "Freelancers can deduct anything that it costs them to do business. Any money spent for the work they do can be deducted." Tax Deductions for Freelancers in the Office Sure you know the basics of what can be deducted, but look beyond those to make serious tax deductions that will add up quickly. read more : http://www.graphicdesigndegree.com/taxes-for-freelancers-20-deductions-you-should-be-taking-and-how/

ARTICLE: Writing Lessons – Practical Tips for Improving Writing Skills

Writing Lessons – Practical Tips for Improving Writing Skills Posted: 29 Sep 2010 10:02 AM PDT Teaching writing lessons is one of my goals for Successful Writers – not online writing courses, but short tips-based articles on improving writing skills. To that end, here are five practical tips for overcoming specific writing problems… But before the tips, a quip: "On plenty of days the writer can write three or four pages, and on plenty of other days he concludes he must throw them away." ~ Annie Dillard. This is one of the hardest parts of being a writer: throwing out sentences, paragraphs, and pages of written work. O, how it stings! But, the more writers write, the better they get…and the less they throw out. Or at least, the less bothered they are about tossing away their words. These writing tips are inspired by the recently launched Breathing the Page: Reading the Act of Writing by Betsy Warland. It's a doozy of a writing book, helpful for both professional and new writers. We must never stop reading about writing, fellow scribes, or we will stop learning and solidifying the most important writing lessons! Okay, enough of that. On to this… Writing Lessons – Practical Tips for Improving Writing Skills READ MORE AT: http://theadventurouswriter.com/blogwriting/writing-lessons-practical-tips-for-improving-writing-skills/
