I have been an artist all my life, from making my own paper dolls to building my own little house on the prairie with popsickle sticks.... designing and sewing my own clothes to painting murals on my walls. Creativity is an inherent part of my personality. It's fun!

Writing the Artists Statement

Hi I just want to let everyone out there know- I went to a workshop at East End Arts Council in Riverhead, Long Island, New York about- how to write an artists statement-
The two facilitators were Michelle Drake and Pat Rogers- two gals very knowledgeable in the fields of marketing and self-promotion. Michelle is a motivational speaker and Pat is a journalist. After listening to the presentation, we all took turns with the creative writing process and I think came away with lots of great ideas. The workshop went over the scheduled time period because we really got into it. They are going to be offering other workshops in grant writing and other relevant themes for artists of all disciplines so check their website at
www.eastendarts.org
I'm really glad I went!

Well Chris, my eyes are tired. I read the whole new webpage. Very interesting. I wish I were young. More power to you for trying to make the most of your talent.
I always knew you'd come out on top.
