ABOUT BROADSIDEDOnce a month, on or about the first, a new broadside is posted both on this site and around the nation. Writing is chosen through submissions sent to Broadsided. Artists allied with Broadsided are emailed the selected writing. They then "dibs" what resonates for them and respond visually. The resulting letter-sized pdf is designed to be downloaded and printed by anyone with a computer and printer. Our goal is to create something both gorgeous and cheap. We want to put words and art on the streets. Broadsided News/Interviews

Norling (www.afnorling.com): "I am 35 years old, married, with a young daughter and two dogs of questionable breeding. I have lived in Maine for the majority of my life and enjoy it thoroughly in the late spring, summer and early fall.

Eventually, I found my niche at the Rhode Island School of Design. I'm a professional daydreamer and my artwork is dictated by emotion."
