Hello out there!

Can you believe it's almost March? We had a pretty good blizzard at the start of the month, and mild weather since then. This is typical for Colorado, and if we have a snowy March, that will also be typical. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks. 

I find that the longer days energize me and I get more done around the studio. In addition, "calls for entry" (invitations to enter spring and summer art shows) are starting to roll in. It's time to consider what to submit...newer work is always a good idea, but sometimes a piece that is not fresh off the easel works, too. I let my artistic muse guide me as I ponder how to approach each call. The shows are fun to enter, and a good way to get my name out there. Often I am able to sell work at these shows, and make contact with new clients. It's all good, but can be challenging, because some of us are introverts and have to push ourselves to get out there and communicate. It's often a learned skill! 

Another way to get our names out is through blogging and using other social media.  I hope you will share what I write, like my Facebook page (Julia M Evans Fine Art) visit my website (www.juliamevans.com), find me on Fine Art America, and search me out on Instagram (tjstudios). 

Here's a sneak peak at new work! Comments?
