New blog about being an artist

Hi everyone! The last post was a goodbye but I'm back again. Pamela and I started a new blog about navigating art's challenges over the years, and especially now. 

We'll be covering many topics ranging from how we found an audience in the earlier years to understanding the in and outs of social media today as an artist. 

Once we've established a following we plan on inviting guest artists to share their experiences.

We hope that we'll be able to provide valuable information and inspiration to our community of creators.

Please join us on this journey at Two Seasoned Artists and share your thoughts with us!

I've been busy cleaning up some websites and realized that I still have this blog! It's been 6 years since I've posted and many things have changed and much is the same.

Pamela and are still painting. Although she moved across the country to Utah 2 years ago we still maintain contact weekly.

This will probably be my last post but I will keep the blog up as a positive memory. It was a lot of fun when we ran it and we really appreciated everyone's participation while it lasted.

Thanks for stopping by!

Day 7 of the February Art Challenge

A week of completing a painting each day feels pretty good. Finding a new subject to paint daily is easy as long as I don't care what it is. It's the process of painting that's magical.

Day 5 of the February Art Challenge

We both didn't have much time for painting today. I decided on something small. There's always an hour or less in a day to do what you love to do.
Pamela choose water soluble pastels to paint the apple sketch.

Artists! It's never too late to join in the challenge.
