A Better Painting Day

Pin It
All By Self II, Oil 8" x 6"
I had lots of paint left over from yesterday's painting "experience" so I thought I would try a different version of the solo boat painting I did last week. The colors are a bit off in the photo but I do like the painting. I promise!
I have made a lot of progress with my newsletter. I decided to create one to reach out to potential art collectors. I signed up with Constant Contact (cost is $15.00 per month) and I have to say I really like the program. It enabled me to put the newsletter sign up on my blog and website, it has a great database and the newsletter design is fun and really good quality. I have almost 300 emails in the database (I downloaded most from my outlook Contacts) and I have the draft of the first newsletter almost complete. It is very colorful and has lots of good photos. I have included two sections titled "Where to Find Good but Inexpensive Art" and "My Favorite New Artist" and I am pleased to say that both articles are about all of the wonderful artists I have met through my blog! If you want a copy, be sure to sign up. I hope to send out the inaugural copy on May 1st!
