@art-venture Project is Closing Down!
Hello my dear Steemians and Art Fans,
Today we wanted to share with you an important decision that we slowly were approaching over last few months. I am saying we, that are @stef1 and my hubby @myskye who most of the time were acting as main Curator and runner of the Project. But we now came to the moment when we had to decide what is more important for us:
- for @myskye fully concentrate on renovation of our house, because we are now combining Steemit and renovation that is why we are not able to do much for us
- myself @stef1 I have now more tasks from my work place and more responsibilities, that require working unexpected hours and high level of staff who are getting sick and need to be covered.
- we need time for us too after working non-stop since @art-venture was created in 2018 we did not miss a day

We would like to thank all of you who delegated your Steem Power for the Visual Art creators and we would like to ask you to withdraw it now
I will update @booming account operator Joanna about the closure of the Project, we may still have it till end of the month if we are lucky but it could also be stopped with immediate effect, will depend of the Steemit Team decision.
@stef1 account will still be around and we will use it to give Upvotes when we have time.
I have followed your work for a long time and know how much effort you have put into it, how many hours a good curation means. I have experienced many highs, read about lows and strong disappointment. Nevertheless, you have always kept the ball rolling - and you can be proud of that, as of everything you have established in a wonderful way!
Ich wünsche euch alles, alles Gute für ein erweitertes Privatleben und freue mich darauf, wenigstens @stef1 immer mal wieder über den Weg laufen zu können!
Halle liebe Christiane,
Danke für deine netten Worte über unserer Arbeit, und wenn ich Arbeit sage dann meine ich wirklich Arbeit. Es hat täglich so viel Zeit in Anspruch genommen.
Langsam aber sicher hatten wir unser Interesse für das Magazin verloren, besonders mein Mann der von Tag zu Tag wenige und wenige Zeit mit der curation auf Steem verbracht hat. Das war dann das letzte Signal, mit dem Magazin erst einmal aufzuhören.
Wer weiß wie es weiter geht, aber wie du es schon gelesen hast, werden wir versuchen mit @Stef1 weiterhin da zu sein.
Ja, wir hatten auch ein paar schöne Frühlingstage, natürlich mit Kaffee und Kuchen. Ich wünsche dir auch eine schöne Woche,
Karly
Would you please remove the link it is not visible on Steemit. Thanks,
You did a lot for artists. It was a great support
Thank you, we hope that the Artists have benefited from the project too :)
It's a shame to see it finish but I understand. You have helped support many artists the last few years and your hard work was much appreciated.
All the best for the future! :)
Hi Ian, nice to hear from you and hope you are doing well.
Yes, time to time we need breaks and some changes who knows it might start again. But currently we do not feel like we do efficient work as before and seems like drained out. We still continue @stef1 posts and not completely leaving :)
Oh @stef1, I wish you and hubby all the best. Many peaceful walks by the seaside, restful slumber, and high expectations of the dawn!
Thank you Ron, my hubby likely will be not much in but I will try to keep going with @stef1 account it will be easy to keep one account active :)
Hello friends, this news leaves me very surprised, I did not expect it. I wish you both all the success and happiness. I hope that all your projects and work achieve all your goals. I am going to miss you very much, since I arrived at Steemit I loved this beautiful art-venture artistic project.
Thanks for all the support!!
God bless you, you will always have a friend around here. 💜
Until when will you be on the platform, end of the month?
Yes, the projects start and finish, this one was running for last 4 years and we would like some break with it.
I wish you the best, lots of happiness and health, thanks for everything 💜
:( I never expected to see this news one day. I am really sad. Because this project is a very fair curator and thanks to it, we had the chance to find great art posts in its every magazine. Thank you very much for putting your signature under such a wonderful project between your responsibilities in business life and real life and for bringing us together under the roof of @art-venture.
Thanks to you, I found the motivation to be active on Steemit. You have contributed a lot to my account on Steemit. Therefore, a special thank you very much.
I am always with you in your new projects or if you activate this project again ❤️
Since we started the project it was already stopped once and then restarted again, it just depends on what is happening around and how busy we are. We really enjoyed to learn so many creative Artists and friends of Artists and Photographers that it is a real small community. We will keep @stef1 running so on and off will be keeping Artists curated with "Stef" account.
You have grown up into confident and engaged leader and would be great to see that you are keep being one of our active member :)
Your thoughts about me made me very happy :) Thank you so much for your nice words :)
Wish you the best !
Hi Quentin, thank you for wishes and also we are around with @stef1 so will see you :)
Sad news. I wish you the best and I'm so grateful for all that you had meant to the community.
Art-venture has given us seriousness, honesty and professionalism, as well as a friendly and sincere welcome. I'll miss art-venture.
Hi Jorge, thank you for your lovely words and we are very happy to be able to support you. Despite of stopping our activity with @art-venture we will keep an eye on our Visual Art artists and try to support with @stef1 account that will keep producing posts and being around :)
💗
By the way Jorge, please withdraw your delegation, thank you for support :)
I understand you, it's amazing with hours that you and your husband put into @art-venture. It will be a great loss not to see art-venture anymore. I have to thank you for all your time with @art-venture
I know it is also very strange for us, not to use our all seeing "eye", but we will see what the future will bring us :)
