Sunday Searching for Art Ideas

2010, Uncategorized / Linda Germain / December 6, 2009

Sometimes I like to browse around the internet and what a wild path I take. Follow may path today.

http://joannemattera.blogspot.com/2009/12/fair-and-fair-alike-miami-2009-art-or.html fun art or not art quiz I did not pass it. http://joannemattera.blogspot.com/2009/07/marketing-mondays-what-artists-should.html How to start and art gallery. to http://edwardwinkleman.blogspot.com/ http://nycartgallerywalkschelsea.blogspot.com/ then to http://thealteredpage.blogspot.com/2009/12/secret-sunday-3.html to http://web.mac.com/jaihn/new_spaciouscraft/gallery_portal.html to http://findingsart.blogspot.com/ to http://artpropelled.blogspot.com/ to http://veronicafunk.blogspot.com/ to http://www.artistsforthepoor.ca/ too tired to search any more. Funny how color and load time affect first impressions on a web page.

Today I played with a quilt and was not happy with any of the designs that I came up with. I am also decorating a box for my artist group meeting tomorrow.

Sunday in the Studio

2010, Uncategorized / Linda Germain / November 29, 2009

It is a popular place, my studio, which is a large corner of my family’s machine shop. It is great place for the kids to come and run around or build things. We are so lucky. I want the place to myself these days, but I have to learn to share. Today I cut up several men’s shirts to make a quilt for christmas. Now I think I will try some of my new stencils for Christmas cards. Enjoy!
