Blog Triage-Lesson 1


With a commitment to building a more vibrant blog, I signed up for the 4-week Blog Triage class with Cynthia Morris (http://journeyjuju.com) and Alyson Stanfield (http://artbizblog.com). Today's assignment is to describe the people I want to visit and read my blog.

So here goes. I really want EVERYONE to read and look at my blog. That way I can know what folks think and how my words and my art are communicating with the "everyperson" out there. Hearing from artists who are not part of my home circle sounds exciting. Having one of my "collectors" or some new art interested person weigh in would be a big boost. Finally, seeing the name of a close friend or one of the many who call me "Aunt Marge" on a comment post makes me smile now as I think about it.

The second part of the assignment is to state what I want to get from blogging.

On that subject: Writing posts about "art" and my art will, I hope, help me to clarify my own thanking and better focus my painting. efforts. Should I be lucky enough to get some feedback and conversation from readers, that would make my day. If some blogger should turn into a buyer that would support both my ego and my art habit.
Break out the champagne.
