This is just a note for anyone who may run across this and may be interested. Wetcanvas is a great online artist community, and basic membership is completely free. There are many excellent forums for various types of artwork - the ones I typically hang out in are the soft pastel, watercolor, sculpture, wearable art so look me up if you want.
A common way to find artworks or items on Ebay from Wetcanvas members is to look for 4wc as a keyword. Your kind support of artists everywhere is greatly appreciated.
Another inspiring blog to read is by Paul Dorrell, proprieter of the Leopold Gallery in KCMO, and author of "Living the Artist's Life". He is an incredible person, and a true friend of artists everywhere. You can check out his blog at http://www.pauldorrell.com/.
If you would like to check out the MidAmerica Pastel Society, their website is http://www.midamericapastel.org/. This is an excellent organization, and membership is completely open to all for a mere $25 per year. There are many benefits, including almost monthly newsletters (also available to download from the website in pdf format), almost monthly meetings with various topics - in October, we're having Jim Wallen, an excellent performer of stories dressed in period type costumes and several members do pastel demos - we normally have a packed house when he shows up! MAPS is under the IAPS, so some benefits exist also from that relationship. For more information, please visit the website.
I'll try to add some more artwork soon, and thanks for visiting. Truly, I hope all is going well for you and your loved ones!
