I'm talking now
I can't believe it's been an entire month since my last blog entry. In that span of time it seems, that the whole world has changed, is changing. I went out to do a bit of holiday shopping yesterday, and it was quite strange to see so little traffic, so few people doing anything. Lots of help standing around in the stores.
I have been sidetracked away from my art work plans for the Christmas holiday, which was to have my teddy bear calendar available for orders, and a new Christmas greeting card design. (Also, having my site ready to begin sales of my original works.) The greeting card design I would have shared in my printing site for orders, but now we have less then 2 weeks before Christmas day, and a busy time coming before the date, and the rest of December. I may as well shine that project off for availability anytime soon. I am continuing with the calendar. My teddy bear art had been stored away until I could find a way to purchase prints for whole calendars, and now that the art works are out, as I am getting them ready to make into calendars, I have had to add color onto the entire 12 works, mostly to regain the brightness they were before putting them in storage. I should have sprayed them with a fixative to preserve their color, but I was not planning for it to take another 5 years to afford the prints. Local printing wanted a large price paid for 50 calendars, and net service printing businesses were not willing to negotiate a lower price. I'm going to try a new publishing site for people that want to sell books, art, photography without going to another source or forking over large sum of cash just to get started, by using a method of printing brochures, posters, book and calendars per each order. That might be a workable way to sell my calendars on line. The printing site I regularly share my work on for printing, and purchasing does not print calendars, and that was a goal of mine for quite some time. Side note: I have frame service pending on Impatien Dreams. It's not cheap to have works framed professionally. I'll certainly let ya know when that is finally happening. Have a great days! Peace-n-hugs, Janet
