VISION / VISIE

Our History - Visionart Publications was registered in November 1997 as a publishing business with visions of publishing an art magazine to promote South African artist's and provide opportunites for new writers to be noticed. As a small publisher we quickly identified the niche area of promoting not only South African Art but also the written work of Afrikaans authors as a clearly identifiable segment of the consumer market that had - and still has more than 20 years later - unfulfilled potential.

Visual Arts:  Visionart is constantly evolving as any business should - and doing our bit to reduce our carbon footprint by planting trees instead of giving people reason to chop them down - we think twice before we print. The internet and social media platforms has since become a more affordable medium to introduce art in full color to the public - and our facebook page is  doing just that: https://web.facebook.com/swerfkind/ -

 is a platform for both Amateur and Professional Artists to showcase their recent work.  We will happily inform the Visionart community about events, exhibitions, shows and even theater performances. We love art: Fine Arts, digital art, illustrations, photographs, paintings, comic and Animation, sculpture's.

 

Written Books: There is one thing the internet can't beat - and that is that feeling of accomplishment a writer has when a book is finally complete, edited - and printed. There is something to be said about the joy of holding a hardcopy of your written work in your hand that a completed ebook soft copy can just not bring. The scent of a newly printed book, the feel of the crisp pages between your fingers and the neatly typed letters in black on white paper - it makes it all worth while, it makes you want to do it again - and again! 

That is why we make it possible for writers to get that first book published. 

 

Visionart Publications provide free advise and offer self-publishing services, editing, proofreading and even translation services to writers who has no idea where to start to publish a book. Working online is how we operate, VisionArt Publications has virtual offices (only) and we don't employ a large team of creative people, rather we offer work-from-home and income opportunities to South African freelance ghostwriters, graphic designes, illustrators, editors and proofreaders (because local is lekker).

 

SKRYF, LEES, DINK - EN DRUK - IN AFRIKAANS

Wat lekker is - ons fokus op 'n Afrikaanse mark.  Skrywers en digters wat graag hulle merk in Afrikaans wil maak - of dan hulle boek in Afrikaans wil druk - kan beslis. Daar is tientalle Afrikaanse Facebook groepe vir digters en duisende Afrikaans skrywers, daar is baie beslis 'n behoefte aan kreatief skryf in hul moedertaal en so uitdrukking te gee aan emosie. Elke skrywer droom om hulle skryfwerk in 'n boek of bundel te sien

en te voel in die hand. Ons verstaan daardie droom. Jou boek droom is ons visie.
