so there. i tried *something* new!
first of all - THANKS EVERYBODY! - for your kind and helpful responses to my oh-so-whiney entry of last week. i didn’t even realize that many people still read this mess. all is not well, but i do feel a little better. thanks! and such great ideas of new things to try… i was gone over the weekend, to Kansas City, to spend birthday weekend with my poet, so it was not an artWeekend (exactly - although there is always a camera at hand). we had a fine time, with films and brownies and vietnamese food and wallowing and a long beautiful walk in the woods, including the pear forest, now all orange and amazing (last March we saw them covered in blossoms and snow, also wonderful!) on Sunday i woke spinnyHeaded. shit. so we didn’t do much, but knowing i was going to need to drive home, we went out for some fresh air in the afternoon and so i could make blurry pictures of the coloredHouse neighborhood. i know i know. HOUSES. but i made them different, i DID. it was a fun exercise and i might try it again this weekend. along with painting. gulp. and other stuff. i guess i’d better get some cheap red wine. and loud music.
some etsy stuff:
1. there are some new things OH! and DUH! an Autumn Sale … i forgot to say …
2. i am going to close down the print shop. i don’t really need another etsy shop. jeez! but i will offer some prints in the original store off and on. and you can always ask, too!
3. i keep thinking i want to try something different for online marketing, but so far i don’t know what … so i stay with etsy.
onward!

The blurry photo is very cool ….. you see colours and shapes and forms and your mind takes over from there. Do more of this!!

Oh, and PS:
This IS painting. So if you feel brave, pick up the paintbrush, you’ll rock with it for sure!

Dear Bobbi,
You are welcome anytime in the studio…….I live about 3 miles from a bayou but
right now with all the rain there is water up to the front door and I can see some
crawfish moving around.
Like that photo/underpainting/abstract……..it is all there under the surface……

Trying to figure out another marketing concept outside Etsy is the tumbling block, considering there are so very many artists and crafters on Etsy. Like you, I keep asking myself what?
Wishing you good luck in your search.
