An interesting blog site...

...for those who like to paint and/or draw is Different Strokes from Different Folks. The author, Karin Jurick, posts a photo and then artists send in their rendition of the scene in the photo. She generally posts a new photo every two weeks. There are directions for entering written on the right side of the blog as you scroll down. She also shares helpful thoughts about being an artist.

Even if you don't participate, it's an interesting blog - scroll through the archives and you'll see a lot of good work!

  1. Thanks for the reminder Patty - I follow Karen's normal blog, but forgot that she had started this one!

    A few of my other favorites are www.artbizblog.com (art business advice), and http://clintwatson.net/blog (daily Fine Art Views Blog about art, inspiration, business, etc) - they're both worth reading!

  2. Thanks for the info, Stacey. I was going to mention artbizblog in a future post - it's full of useful information! Donna and I were just talking about her blog today. I'll have to check out clintwatson.net/blog.

    And, congratulations on getting a show at Elkhorn Gallery this summer! I'll be mentioning that in a future post, too.
