A Quaint Street, Oil 10" x 8" Sold.
I mentioned a bit about my newsletter in an earlier post this week. As much as I LOVE my blog (and all of you!) I realize that most of the readers of my blog are artists. I decided I need to also reach out to everyone else. So, I signed up with the company Constant Contact which enabled me to set up an email database and also create a newsletter. They also keep you "spam compliant" which apparently is important these days.I receive two daily newsletters that discuss marketing for artists (they are written by Clint Watson and Tony Moffitt). Both of them encourage artists to develop a mailing list and monthly newsletter. I guess it finally sunk in.
So, this morning I sent out the May Newsletter. My initial list has just over 300 contacts and I hope it will continue to grow throughout the year. I am featuring two fun monthly columns which are "Where to Find Really Good Art" and "My Favorite New Artist". I am excited to feature some of my favorite artists in my newsletters to come!
