She talked at length about most of the well known social networking platforms, blogging, video and on-line store communities, giving a flavour of each to enable the individual to decipher what is for them.  I have been toying with the idea of joining Facebook for a long time now but haven’t got around to it for a lack of time and because of how my art, and my family and my life in general seem to be my priorities.  We concluded Facebook is more of a communication tool between friends for updating each other on their latest social activities and not really geared toward marketing, which is what I feel I need to be concentrating on at present.  So Facebook (for the time being) receives the ‘thumbs-down’!  However…………I was really intrigued to hear more about Twitter and I do think I will give it a go!!  It’s simple and quick and makes staying in touch and connecting a bit of fun!

Prior to rushing out this evening, I have made another fresh start.  So far here I have worked up on a board some Gutta, shredded tissue and toilet paper(!), and gesso – all ready for a bit of colour next.  Can’t wait to get some vibrancy into this!  Oooooh – I love my work!!!  xx

Tulips on black - ready to go!
