It's been a while as I travelled half way around the world to New Zealand. I have been enjoying catching up on New Zealand , which you can learn more about at Contemporary New Zealand Art.I'm sure at times we artists go through periods of creative frenzy and I have been experiencing this since my return. I seem to be having a digital art burst at present.I welcome anyone's feedback http://bayareaartbeyondthefog.blogspot.com/2008/09/new-digital-art-design.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1759083970176211075.post-6756445529189254600Tue, 05 Aug 2008 21:18:00 +00002008-12-11T04:50:47.098-08:00art from photosart outsidecontemporary artinner artistHello to all my readers,On the weekend we did a bit of local touring by car. Of course I took my camera. If you're like me, you will see the artistic in many things around you.Being an artist is something innate, I believe. You can learn techniques and master drawing but having the eyes of an artist to me, is another thing.The eyes of an artist looks at the detail or can visualize beyond the http://bayareaartbeyondthefog.blogspot.com/2008/08/taking-inner-artist-outside.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1759083970176211075.post-8303265670310854070Tue, 29 Jul 2008 05:43:00 +00002008-08-11T14:06:38.083-07:00custom framingHello to my art loving readers!<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Have you ever had concerns about ordering artwork prints or glicees online?

It has taken me almost 6 months of part-time trial and error to discover other avenues to market my products.The web provides so many options. Since I am not spending time surfing the net every other hour, I had not even heard of Digg, Stumble Upon, Del-icio-us, Flickr, http://bayareaartbeyondthefog.blogspot.com/2008/07/artists-networking-on-web.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1759083970176211075.post-6335934781167111640Sat, 19 Jul 2008 18:51:00 +00002008-08-11T14:08:26.778-07:00art galleriesexhibitionsHello Fellow Art Lovers and Artists!I have been rather busy with visitors from overseas, so finally have managed to log in with more news.Last week, my daughter and I visited the Bedford Art Gallery in Walnut Creek CA.

It takes hard work and often happens over a long period of time.If you look back into art history, you will recall how Vincent Van Gogh's artwork, was gravely undervalued while alive. Modigliani struggled to subsist and so on... there are numerous stories. http://bayareaartbeyondthefog.blogspot.com/2008/06/business-of-art_24.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1759083970176211075.post-8556478609958338145Wed, 18 Jun 2008 18:50:00 +00002008-08-11T14:09:51.719-07:00world art eventsHave you heard of this?
