Hello again everyone,
ReplyDeleteSlowly but surely I am making progress in the internet social networking etailer, blogging, facebook, forum scene. So much to learn. I think that for the younger generations all of this comes easily, perhaps they have evolved brains that accommodate this technical universe. Like NYC taxi drivers; studies have shown that the part of their brain that handles 'mapping' is far larger than the average Joe. So maybe I am 'growing' my internet instincts.
Inspiration: I am inspired by anyone who is master of their chosen medium. Lately that has been fellow etsian: Chopoli, who does magical and breathtaking polymer clay and driftwood fairies. I am not even into fairies, but I would buy her sculptures in a heartbeat. You can see them on her blog here:
http://chopoli.blogspot.com/
I am also enamored with Anthony Pontius's work, a painter from Brooklyn. Dark and dreamlike, here is one of my favorites from his collection:

Today I will be listing 2 new drawings in my Etsy shop, I like them a lot because they made me laugh which is rare these past weeks because my furry friend Annabelle is dying and I have made arrangements with the Vet to come Saturday. I spend every moment with her I can, she lays by my chair when I am drawing, I cannot imagine what next week will be like without her there. Here is a link to a drawing I did of her: http://trixiefishstabber.blogspot.com/2010/04/wind.html
That's all I've got on the bunson burner for now. TF
TF, Thanks for sharing today. You are right Chopoli has amazing fairies!
ReplyDeleteYour work is wonderful, and what a great way to remember a wonderful friend.
1. I am excited to see my parents this weekend as they drive back from Florida on there way home to Minnesota. They have been in Florida since Christmas, so it will be nice to see them.
ReplyDelete2. If you missed it I have a new series that will run on Wednesdays called Be Inspired. You will find a variety of ways to be inspired and creative. There will be quotes, ideas to boost your creativity, and photo's to inspire new idea, I hope you check it out every Wednesday.
3. I am working on new ideas for the blog, I would love to here your thoughts, ideas, or suggestions.
ADDITIONS STYLE:
ReplyDelete(BTW, what a great idea for getting people to participate in your blog - kudos) Everyone loves to share anonymously about oneself! : )
1. I love blogging. Have 2 blogs:
http://www.clairesheartspace.blogspot.com
http://www.saltlighttomatoes.blogspot.com
First blog is about my Etsy store. (Come see: HeartSpace)
Second blog is my writing blog.
2. Love reading and following blogs. It's like communicating on a whole new plane, with mystery, when it's people I don't know. When it's people I know it's fun to learn more about them.
3. I am a writer, poet and artist (I make shrines) who is trying to make some money to supplement our family via Etsy, mostly selling jewelry. I have two novels written. But I am so busy caring for others, I forget to do what I love sometimes and almost never promote myself.
So, thank you, for giving me a chance to change this and anonymously (well sort of anonymously) talk about myself.
Love your website. One of my favorite people blogging is The Elfin Poet.
You can find her on Blogspot.
PS. I am following your blog!
ReplyDeleteClaire, I am glad you participated today. I am a follower of your blog HeartSpace as well and love your work, it's very beautiful.
