OVS ANTHOLOGY CONTESTS FOR ART AND POETRY ARE NOW OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS!

Congratulations to our Pushcart nominees Susan Vespoli, Sarah Luczaj, and Carol Lynn Grellas from Vol 1!

What do we want?

Send us your art, your poetry, and even your art that goes with your poetry, and all you have poured into it!  We want to hear from everyone. It doesn't matter if you haven't published before, or if you are an old pro.  It doesn't matter to us how many galleries you have hung in.  We just want great work that makes us feel what you are expressing. 
Become a patron today and support the arts!

"Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen."  ~Leonardo da Vinci

"Ink runs from the corners of my mouth
There is no happiness like mine.
I have been eating poetry."
~Mark Strand, "Eating Poetry," Reasons for Moving, 1968
