I recently found a website, HubPages.com, which is a writing community where, using their advertising structure, I can earn a few dollars a month. Maybe enough to keep me in Starbucks!
This article has been moved to HubPages. I do apologize for any inconvenience for having you make one more click to find what you are looking for, but I found out (after posting the article there) that it can't be duplicated material. In other words, I can't just cut and paste my blog posts, they must be significantly different. I will keep this in mind in the future when I am writing for both sites.
As my favorite inspiration role model, Danielle Laporte, says "Launch and Learn". It's never going to be perfect, so just get out there and do it.
Thanks for your interest and support!

Somehow hearing Jack Nickleson's voice come out of your picture made my head hurt! Really good stuff, this post. I am reminded of a quote by Casey Baugh "In a room packed with paintings, the one that often first catches our eye is the one with the best composition." I think that might be apropos too, to the issue of emotional impact. We respond first to that which is to the point and concise. In other words, good composition. Thanks for this Cindy.
ReplyDeleteI'm ready to take some art classes just to receive feedback because I honestly don't have a clue except to think my artwork might not have an appeal to many people, it's, I don't know....quirky? I have a hard time being objective because it's purely a fun, engrossing experience to paint, no technique...or formal training. I think feedback is important....my blog is to hope to get it, really, but everybody's so...nice.
ReplyDeleteI really like your advice, I'm going to be mulling over your suggestions and figuring out how I can incorporate them....and to Louise, yes, composition, composition, composition.
Pamela, Your artwork is fabulous! It's vibrant,colorful, great texture, shapes,and lines. http://www.etsy.com/shop/SOiNTOiT Honestly I don't think it's your artwork, I think it's the organization of your shop...also your pricing structure. I also don't know anything about your marketing strategy..but I'm going to send you a convo on Etsy.
