I love getting artist emails every day and looking at their blogs and new work. It makes my day. The only problem is that I did figure out that you can click on the artists they link too, and now I'm having a hard time getting my work done - it's much more fun to visit blogs and drown myself in art and words. I just found Frank Gardner and I love his stuff - I feel a new painting from Mr. Gardner will be coming to live at my house soon. Oh, and I too own several Carol Marine paintings, both large and small - I knew she was becoming very successful but from the sound of these comments she is raking it in. :o)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06002238433161397308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18183797.post-70596773626504664302008-05-08T23:30:00.000-05:002008-05-08T23:30:00.000-05:00Thank you, Frank.

This year we started to collect some art that we actually pay for (not trade). Most of it has been from artists I met through blogging. We have a few of Carol's too. Most of the artists on my short list of painters to buy are also bloggers.<BR/>It is a great way to meet new artists, make friends, and scout out new pieces of art.Frank Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011564146411771531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18183797.post-6158317554862766012008-05-08T12:58:00.000-05:002008-05-08T12:58:00.000-05:00Anyone reading these comments- check out Pattie's,...Anyone reading these comments- check out Pattie's, Barbara's and Stacey's work by clicking their names which takes you to their profiles.

I made a goal a long time ago that I would buy at least one original painting per year to build a collection. Back when I had a corporate job, we bought through galleries. Now that I'm blogging, I buy from artists I've "met" online - it's so much more fun to buy from someone I'm familiar with. I just bought a great 18x24" landscape from Montana artist Taylor Lynde through his blog - what a find!Stacey Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10092020892186641387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18183797.post-76609154567704623752008-05-08T11:58:00.000-05:002008-05-08T11:58:00.000-05:00Hi Susan, I added a link to your blog on my blog, ...Hi Susan, I added a link to your blog on my blog, hope that's ok.
