Is spin art a medium? I can also bake with an Easy Bake oven

I've been at the NBC Universal TCA (where they announce all their shows) all day and am pooped, so I will write more all about the Bravo, Oxygen, USA, and NBC fall slate by the end of tomorrow, but for now I wanted to share with you the Sarah Jessica Parker/Magical Elves art-competition reality show on Bravo called American Artist . It's been in development for a while, but the big announcement that Bravo picked it up came today. The show wasn't really the focus at the TCA, but it sparked my interest because I thought it could be the new Project Runway if it's done right. American Artist will be an art competition show bringing together aspiring artist to compete for a gallery show, a cash prize and a sponsored national tour. The show will follow the artists competing and creating different mediums of art: sculpture, painting photography and industrial design. The artists will be judged by a panel of top art figures ranging from artist to collectors to curators to critics. Sounds like a typical Magical Elves show...it's amazing how they keep it so simple, but still manage to keep it classy with plenty of drama. A premiere date has not been set yet, but I as soon as I hear you'll be the first to know. Should be interesting.
