I would love to see your favorite artist’s sites. If you would like to suggest any Christian art websites, or if you have ideas to improve this site please email me admin@ChristianModernArt.com

A quick note- Recommended artist's sites should have Christian themed artwork posted for viewing. I would like to keep the site focused only on art paintings, sculpture and creative mixed media. Christian craft art, or mass produced gift-art has its place, but just not on this site. Thanks!
