Today I have been making business cards, part of my journey into the very tricky domain of art sales. I think that I must try and put forward a fairly professional front and at least try to create an air of confidence and professionalism. I know pc wizards would have done this in no time but it took me ages! I couldn't find the right template to fit the cards I had bought. I know this sounds easy to fix but somehow it just took too long. Still, I have ended up with some cards and i'm quite pleased with them. I shall do a flyer next which will hopefully be a little easier. I transfered the pics from my camera to pc just now so Gallery - here I come!

Hi, This is my first ever blog and i'm sooo excited. It seems as if I am entering a new world and I can't wait! The whole idea of a blog came from my friend Katherine and her sons Adam and Alistair. I went to see them to elicit some advice and practical help because I am having a small art show in Felixstowe, Suffolk, UK on 3rd September - artontheprom.org - and thought a web site would be useful. They say ignorance is bliss, it surely was. I had no idea of the complexity of such a thing. It was all proving way too complicated and expensive when the idea of a blog was mooted. I thought it was a fantastic idea. I could keep posting blogs - if that's the right expression -and show my work in various stages of design and progress whilst receiving comments. How cool is that! I shall now see if I can take some pics and post them in my gallery so hopefully before too long there will some work to comment on.
