Relax • Recharge • Restore

4/22/2022

You might think it crazy or maybe a bit silly, or even weird but my idea of relaxing is working on art graphics.   I just sit and play and create designs, like the one below on my computer.  That is how I relax my mind, recharge, and restore my energy to do the things I have to do! Business wise and otherwise.  Just saying!  How is it you relax • recharge • restore your mind to do the things you have to do?  Is it constructive, destructive or  a distraction?   Think on that one!  Back to the real world I go...

In order to create A M A Z I N G  ART...                          LIVE & LOVE Passionately!

Creating art is a meditative process, it has helped me more that once in my life, to understand and work through my inner feelings, to think things through during challenging times and life situations!  My art has always been there for me. I can count on it, always!  I find myself delving into my art deepest, especially when life or people disappoint me.  I believe it is a most healthy way to make it to the next day!  My creative spirit is my inspiration and muse, I live and love it passionately.  It is ME!

Building Equity in Your Business

If you do not know already...I have other websites that I work on.  That I own.  I am able to cross over information and grow a larger audience with posting the same or similar information on one or all sites. 

​My intent is at some point in time to let go or and sell the sites.  I am busily building up my assets!  What are you doing to build your Arts business?

Here I have incorporated and wishing to gain cross over interest in both my OilPastelSmudge.com site and my Calligraphy-theLetteraryArts.com site with a FaceBook post on Oil Pastel Smudge.   Like tagging myself in a different way!

I have been having fun lately taking my art to a new level and presentation.  Here I have my Calligraphy lettering, where I create what I call a beauty shot, and join the artwork with 3 dimensional objects relating to the message or theme.  I take a photograph wiht my iPhone or digital camera and there you go another dimension of my art!  Take your Art to the next level!  Give it a try! Think Creative! Be Creative!

When creating your eBooks...Think THEME!

7/18/2021

0 Comments

 
What's wonderful about being an illustrator is you get to draw and work with color.    When thinking eBook ...Think THEME!   Seasonal, Holiday, Animals, Flowers, Sea life, you get the idea.    

This is an eBook I created years ago.  I worked with the publisher who wanted 4 seasonal eBooks in my style of illustration.  Winter, Summer, Spring and Fall!  They were great fun putting them together and I can see myself creating more. If I can do it I am sure you can too!  Think THEME and make it happen!

    I consider myself to be an Artist/Designer first,
    as creating
    is my passion.
     
    An Arts Educator, because 
    I love to share the experience in creating
    beautiful art.
     I have found though teaching and sharing with others I learn myself.

    I hope to encourage all Artists / Creatives to be successful though sharing art and business experiences so we may grow together through  knowledge and understanding.

    I am an Arts Business owner because
    ​I know what I have to offer is of value.

    ​I believe there is enough room in this world for all of us to be successful in the area that we are passionate about.
