Today I am creating a blog because Etsy and everyone else says I should have one! My purpose I suppose is to tell people about my art and document my experiences as I try and open up my own Etsy shop in hopes of selling my artwork.
I am creating this blog on Tripod because that is where my website is, such as it is. I've been told the site is sorely in need of updating. But, I've also been told that my artwork is "amazing!" So, I don't feel too bad.
I might perhaps post photos of my most recent work on the blog and discuss the pieces, my creative process, reasons behind the choice of subject matter, what the piece means to me, etc. I am considering making one of my favorite paintings the background of my blog page. I will have to play with the image on the computer and fade it out so that the image doesn't conflict with the text. I think I can do this.
I am hoping that keeping this blog will help me get out there and get things done. That's all for today.
