Last week I attended an on-line, intensive, "Social Media for Artists" workshop.
Then I spent the rest of the week on the computer, bouncing back and forth from sheer amazement to utter confusion, while weaving my way through setting up "Social Media for Business" Facebook and Instagram accounts, and then separating each account into two different pages. A total of two accounts and four pages - and then linking them all together.
I split my Facebook/Instagram accounts into two different pages to separate my two vastly different painting subjects and styles.
My first Facebook/Instagram page is Celene Farris, A Maine Artist. This page features my traditional Maine landscapes and seascapes, traditional still life, florals and figurative oil paintings. Also some miniatures.
My second Facebook/Instagram page is Celene Farris, Night Painter. This page features my new subject of Night Landscapes and Cityscapes.
Success! My two accounts are now active, my four pages are now complete and all has been launched!
And two days ago I had my first "internet/social media sale". How great is that!
I now have both my original Ebay Store and my new "Social Media Sites" as internet selling platforms.
Last week was a very busy but productive week. This week I hope to paint!
I hope you will visit my new Facebook and Instagram Pages and "Follow" me through this journey into the world of social media. I will be adding more of my paintings on a regular basis and showing some older works as well. Hope to see you there!
I would love to hear your comments.
Thanks so much for visiting with me.

PS... A little follow-up a few months later - Downsizing - I have eliminated my Night Painter page and combined it with my Celene Farris, A Maine Artist page. It was just too time consuming. Too many pages to monitor. Not enough painting time! So please visit me on Facebook and Instagram at Celene Farris, A Maine Artist. Thank you!
