New Website Launching Soon

For more than two decades, Blogger was the home of our website. It served as a place where we sold products, shared important announcements, and provided valuable information about ATB.

After becoming incorporated in January 2020, our company transitioned from A.T.B. Fine Artists & Designers LLC to ATB Fine Art Group Inc. This marked an important step in bringing all of our business programs together under one umbrella.

We will continue to use this site as our official blog.

On May 26, 2026, we will be doing a soft launch of our new website.

You can join us at https://atbfineartgroup.com/

There, you will be able to purchase our art, merchandise, and Ethnic Mermaids products and artwork. You will also be able to learn more about our events, programs, and workshops.

Come celebrate our new journey.

Pre-Order Exposure Doesn’t Pay the Bills

Pre-Order your copy of your paperback book.

Officially available January 9, 2026.

*Hardcover available January 16, 2026.

For centuries, artists of all disciplines have been viewed in high regard. Often time’s diplomats and people of aristocracy would invite artists, musicians, and actors to their events to appear on trend or “cool” to the public.

-When did this point of view change?

-When did is become acceptable for artists to be starving and “exposure” be an appropriate form of payment for work and services?

-When did the artists start becoming deemed useless and without redeeming qualities to society?

The goal of this guide is to close the door on the “starving artist” myth, once and for all while empowering all creatives to take a proactive approach to their journey of their own independence.

Trina Slade-Burks is an artist, author, educator, and curator with more than three decades of professional experience in the arts. She is the co-founder of ATB Fine Art Group Inc., a national art-based consulting firm devoted to the creation, promotion, and education of multidisciplinary arts, as well as the No More Starving Artists Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization committed to supporting the sustainability of Palm Beach County artists. Throughout her career, she has remained dedicated to empowering artists to cultivate enduring, impactful legacies.
