Skyscraper Art on OttawaStart

[

](http://ottawastart.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/skyscraper-blog-teaser-imag.jpg)

Back in August, we invited local artists to participate in a project called “Skyscraper Art on OttawaStart”. We received dozens of submissions, and picked 30 of our favourites to feature in the skyscraper ad space on our main site .

The Skyscraper space is the tall, skinny ad on the right-hand side of the page. It’s hard to miss. And from now until November 30, it will become a virtual art gallery showing off some of Ottawa’s best artists.

The 30 featured artists include:
