Artimus Art: An Online Gallery For Your Child’s Artwork
I’ve seen website services where you can publish your own books ondemand, but I’ve never seen one such as Artimusart. This site allows families to upload their child’s artwork to create an online gallery, thus preserving what most parents already do anyway — keep their child’s artwork.
Like other online family-sharing sites, parents have the choice of inviting other family member and friends to view what they upload. Sounds like a great idea for families whose members live far away. You can also choose to make the artwork part of a public library. Personally, I don’t see the benefit to this because who, outside of family and friends, would want to see somebody else’s artwork? I suppose it could be argued that it could boost a child’s self-esteem knowing that they’re among a group of other kids showing their hard work on the Web.
But what really makes Artimus unique is what parents can do with the artwork offline. You can choose to make a 11″x11″ hardbound copy of the little one’s masterpieces. And if you’re really wanting to show off their work in style, why transform their art onto a 12″x16″ canvas? Check out their site for details on price.

I have three kids and I work full time. Needless to say, my household is very busy and hectic. I shipped a box of my daughter’s art work to Artimus Art (literally a box of art) and received in return a beautiful book complete with my daughter’s picture on the back cover. That book now sits proudly on my shelf and I am packing up my sons’ boxes as well. Everyone who sees the book comments on the quality and idea concept. The best part for me is that I can get rid of all those boxes and keep the beautiful books instead. Thanks Artimus Art. Great idea, great product.
