Hi Leslie, I just found you and Dreama on "Artists Helping Artists." I've been listening to your radio shows non stop! How kind of you both to share such valuable information with the rest of us! And how kind of you to be doing this giveaway! Thank you!

Great work on your art site!
ReplyDeleteLove painting Leslie! It is very generous of you to run this give away for twelve days no less! Thank you for all the FB tips :)
ReplyDeleteLeslie,
ReplyDeleteHere is another tip leftover from yesterday: rarely, would you want to take your artist wife to a movie matinee just to save $4. You are depriving her of sunlight she needs to create something she might sell
for a lot more than that! Soooo...go to movies after dark and forego the"bargain" matinee! She will like you a lot more if she's not focused on what she could be creating!
Love this giveaway idea and thank you for doing it. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI smell another facebook show coming up:) Thanks for the link, I will definitely be utilizing some of these tips. Love the 12 days of Christmas idea, you're so clever. I wracked my brain yesterday over the organizational tips, and came up with nothing. I'm sooooo disorganized, can't wait to hear the show, I could certainly use some help:)
ReplyDeleteGreat composition on this piece.
ReplyDeleteReally looking forward to your Atlanta workshop!
ReplyDeleteLeaving my comment. Hoping to get lucky.
ReplyDeleteTwelve Days of Christmas" is just a fun idea! Love the painting, "Getting Ready." Wonderful compostion and so festive! Thanks for all the great fb tips!
ReplyDeleteJoy!
Lovely composition on this painting - very vibrant. Your radio talk shows are gr8 - I am hooked on to it!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Leslie, you are amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips on Facebook.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, have my fingers crossed!

I've been going back and forth for quite some time about using FB. With these tips and your encouraging words I'm leaning more toward using it. I listen to yours and Dreama's radio show and have learned so much and will do more in the marketing end of art beginning next year......just over 2 weeks YIKES!! :-)
ReplyDeleteGreetings from chilly CT Leslie! I'd love to win your cards. Just finished listening to B.T.R. about getting organized AND also played back the previous week about- finding your creative voice- both really timely info. as I plan my year for 2011!! Thanks for sharing all the great scoop!
ReplyDeleteThe colors are fantastic, and I love the painting.
ReplyDeleteThese are some great tips for Facebook..thanks! Love your paintings and would love some of your cards. I don´t think I could ever send them out to anyone..I think I would frame each one and add them to my inspiration wall for all to see and admire:)
ReplyDeleteYour work exudes contagious happy feelings, and that's nothing to sneeze at! (not to mention, very easy on the eyes) I wish you all kinds of continued success, Leslie.
ReplyDeletethanks so much for the tips.......your painting today is so fun!

ReplyDeleteI like. Pick me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, fun painting! Just listened to the AHA show...you and Dreama are so fun to listen to! Thanks for your generosity!
ReplyDeleteLeslie, Great painting! Love what you can do in 36 square inches. What size/type of knife do you use to do such neat work?
ReplyDeleteOM Geez.......thank goodness Johnny walked in. He helped me find where to post a comment. I am so happy. I hope it is the correct place. Anaways, I find the palet knife technique interesting and love the texture. On a personal note, I hope you are having fun and getting ready for the holidays and enjoying all of the kids being home!

Love your artwork. Do you use brushes or knives? Almost looks like you use knives. I love knife paintings and have tried quite a few. Susan Hogan Girard
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas,Leslie. Really learning a lot about facebook since I have been involved in your "Twelve Days of Christmas". I think I have posted comments where there are no place to post.
ReplyDeleteYour menu sounds amazing!! I am so curious how you became such a wonderful cook and when you have the time to cook. You sound like a very busy woman that is having a lot of fun!
