August. It’s HOT!

It is hard to be creative when it is 100 degree’s outside with a humidity index of %1000.  I usually use this month to promote ArtRobStudios in libraries, businesses and anywhere else that I can find air conditioning. It is a good idea to use the slow season to do “freebees” that help get your business in front of more people. I like to do free painting classes at the library or community center, have free lessons for friends or  hold painting parties in  my home. I have been doing this for three years and find that it really helps to boost business and it is fun! I have also been enjoying painting for myself in my studio. This helps to keep me creatively active as well as helping to build my inventory. Take the time today to do something cool and creative. If you need help, give me a call!

Vacation!!

What do artists do when they are on vacation??? Do they keep painting and drawing and creating or do they just take a break?? I find that I am always looking at my fresh new surroundings with an artists eye and I become very inspired. I bring my paints and brushes with me always, just in case and even though I don’t always sit and paint what I have experienced through out the day, I do like to just sit and put paint on to canvas for the great sense of relaxation and happiness it brings. :0)Tea

ArtRobStudios in Pinellas County

There has been a lot of talk lately about the Pinellas Arts Council folding and reinventing its self as a Blog/FB/social media spot. I think it is great. It is moving the Pinellas Art scene into the 21st Century and it is also giving all of the many local artists that never get noticed in some of the bigger venues a platform to be seen and heard. There are so many talented artists in Salt Creek, Sterling Hall, Studio 1212 and on and on that are worth taking note of. I for one love the work of artists like Chris Still and Chihuly, but believe it or not there are thousands of other artists in Pinellas that are worth the time to go and see. Most of the artists of PAVA, Dennis Gaston, Art students from the Beach Art Center just to name a few. Hopefully this new venture will help get some of these folks out into the forefront where they deserve to be.
