My new website is up and running. Many thanks to my
daughter-in-law, Angel Farris, of MaineWeb Creations, for the many hours of work and her patience in teaching me
how to navigate this new software. I created my original website many years ago
with FrontPage, which is now obsolete. I needed to build a new website for
myself and the gallery with a new software and we chose WordPress.
Unless you have created a website from scratch, you will
never believe the number of hours spent and the vast assortment of new
technology now available. I enjoyed the challenge of working with a new
software and I sincerely thank Angel for teaching me how to utilize the new
technology. I will continue to maintain and update my websites with the secure
knowledge that Angel is here to help me when I get lost.
After
successfully listing some of my paintings on Ebay for a number of years, I
decided to make a change and open an Ebay Store. As I photographed and
inventoried my available work, I realized an Ebay Store would simplify my life
and allow me to organize my paintings into categories and standardize my
prices.
Using
Ebay’s “Fixed Price with Best Offer” format, I again have the opportunity to
interact with my customers, negotiate prices and offer options. This is
reminiscent of my former art gallery in Belfast, Maine, where I could deal
directly with my customers. I enjoy this personal approach and have met so many
pleasant and interesting people over the years.
Ebay
gives me world-wide exposure and an efficient selling format while giving my
customers a safe and secure method for purchasing my work on-line.
May
was a very busy month with way too many hours spent on the computer. I am glad
to be back in my studio again. This month our Virtual Paint Out Group is going
to Estonia. It’s fun to explore each month’s destination using Google Maps
Street Views. We certainly live in an interesting and beautiful world. I will
post my paintings on my Blog and in my Ebay Store.
I
invite you to subscribe to my Blog. It is a two step procedure. First you enter
your email address in the subscription box and hit submit. Soon you will receive an email from
FeedBurner asking you to send back their code message. This will confirm your

and the answer was that she hadn’t completed her verification step through
FeedBurner. If you need assistance, please email me.
My
Newsletters will be infrequent. My Blog will continue on a regular basis,
featuring my latest works, comments, thoughts and answers to questions
received. It’s a great way to stay in touch. I look forward to hearing from you.
