Our PROS group pulled off another of our semi annual events. Again, it seemed to be mostly a successful venture for those involved. I had a steady stream of visitors all weekend, but not quite the crowds we get for the Thanksgiving event. And I think if I had done a mailout instead of just an email invite, I may have gotten more attendance. (Always something new to learn!) My sales were not great the first two days, but sales on Monday made up for it. I had a wonderful response to my work, and again, many comments on the extremely high quality of work in our group. It was really good to clean up the studio & see all the work up on the walls, since it's usually wrapped, stacked & ready to go to a show. So now I am trying to put the studio back into "work mode" & get back to the business of painting.
Today I did a teleseminar with Alyson Stanfield about how to make and sell e-books. It was very informative & part of the information will be provided to us in an e-book. I had never thought about doing something like that before, but in her class description, she said that we all have knowledge that we could share with others (and maybe get paid for) by creating e-books. So I was intrigued. I can't wait to actually get the e-book & see how it all works. Alyson has also recently come out with a book called "I'd Rather Be In The Studio" that is a must-have for all artists working at selling and promoting their work. I interviewed her on this blog as part of her blog tour earlier this year. (Posted on April 3) Check it out.

Dear Andrea,
Thanks for visiting! I had fun doing this one & I have another Buddha one to put on the blog.
Joey (the big dog) is doing fine--he gets to go down to the creek almost every day. He loves to wade, but won't go in too deep. I am going to check in on you & see what you have been up to.
