Da Vinci Art Alliance

Image: "Hypnotic"  (C) the artist: ARTsister Deb K Simon 30x40 Oil on Canvas

Fellow ARTsisters:
I was about to leave this computer chair for awhile, for some other activities which are both more fun and necessary; first I did a quick-check on the Artsisters chalkboard. I realized that I haven't updated the links on the sidebar to include some of our newer members. So sorry, an oversight on my part.
I will try to fix that as soon as I can! (Right now, I must do something else.)

Edna, I wasn't able to make it to the art reception at da vinci Art Alliance on Friday. [frown] I hope it went well. Did anyone else go? Tell us about it here! (You can use the "comments" option below)

ARTsisters,.. Getting Back in the Groove!

So, I took my ARTsisters contact list. I had reformatted it to have larger type (easier for my old eyes to read!)

I placed page one on the copy machine and made a photocopy.
Then I made a copy of page two.

Got out the scissors.
Shuffled them up.
Shuffled them up again.
And again.
Picked one (with my eyes closed).

And the winner is....
Sandi Neiman Lovitz

Do You Use Google Docs?

Fellow Artsisters:
Here's a Tech Tip from me.
I hope it's helpful to you.

On my art blog I talk a little bit about Google Docs.
You can read it here.

How many of you have played around with Google Docs before?

Art inspired by Tuscany and Umbria

Tuscany Hills 1, Monotype
Merlot Fields, monotype
Exuberant Landscape, monotype

The colors, sensations and memories of the lovely hill towns of the wine country in Italy linger long after I returned home. Tuscany and Umbria are in my mind's eye and these are from several series I did inspired by my travels there. I will be posting several more in the next few weeks.

Pricing Video

 I think pricing one's own artwork can be a very difficult challenge. This video created by an artist named Cedar Lee breaks the process down and points out some valuable lessons concerning price.
