Reducing Isolation in the Arts Through an Independent, Artist-Run Online Gallery

Why Ipaintforgod.com Exists




This article outlines the purpose and vision behind Ipaintforgod.com, an independent online gallery created to reduce isolation in the arts and make creative space accessible to more people. The statement below serves as an official explanation of why the gallery exists and how it operates.


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ipaintforgod.com Launches an Independent Online Gallery Centered on Community, Access, and Creative Faith

Ipaintforgod.com is an independent online gallery space created to reduce isolation in the art world and provide a shared platform for artists at every stage—non-artists, emerging creators, established professionals, and even young children—who want a place to work, share ideas, and grow together.

Unlike traditional gallery models that rely on elite networks, heavy selectivity, or financial pressure, Ipaintforgod.com is intentionally accessible. Artists do not need a polished portfolio, deep industry connections, or institutional approval to participate. The platform is designed to be easy to access, easy to navigate, and human in scale—where communication is direct and the owner is reachable.

At its core, the gallery exists to foster community over competition. Artists are invited into a shared space rather than isolated silos, creating consistency, collaboration, and mutual support. Members of the Overlooked Art Collective and their recommended artists receive first access to entry, helping establish continuity and trust while keeping the space open to new voices.

Ipaintforgod.com also makes room for boundary-pushing work—art that asks difficult questions, experiments visually, and reflects lived experience—while maintaining the taste, care, and ethical grounding of a Christian-led organization. The gallery welcomes exploration without sacrificing discernment.

The platform is not built to extract money from artists. Participation is not pay-to-play. However, public support is necessary to sustain the infrastructure, visibility, and labor required to keep the space independent and accessible. Supporters are investing not in exclusivity, but in a gateway—a place where artists can begin, connect, and move toward larger opportunities.

Ipaintforgod.com exists as a living alternative to traditional gallery systems: fewer barriers, less red tape, more people, and real relationships.
