Happy New Year to All of you! I pass along this post from artist Sheree Rensel's blog.
Art Blog: HELP From My Friends? "Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends, Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends, Oh, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends With A Little Help From My Friends -The Beatles OK. Where do I start? I got this idea. I wanted to have a series of online art shows during 2010. I created the "Git Outta My Face" website. I put up a prospectus. It pretty much went unnoticed. I was bummed out but I am not a quitter. I am trying it again. I am promoting it in a different way. The new deadline is January 15, 2010. It costs nothing to submit your work. PLEASE participate or help me find artists who are interested! My motivation is simple. I want to have five online shows with different themes during the coming year. I think it would be fun. It offers artists another place to show their work. Since each artist will have their own exhibition page with their information, it will offer a way for viewers to be redirected to the artist's websites. Also, the shows will allow artists to meet new, unfamiliar artists. Now here comes the "help from my friends" part. I need help promoting the first show "GO AWAY!" I am trying to do something for artists, but I can't do it alone. This is why I am asking for help from you, my friends. If you have a blog, use Twitter, Facebook, or any other online forums, I would appreciate it if you would mention the show and encourage artists to participate. I would really appreciate any and all help from any of you. I am trying to do something positive and fun for artists. I think this is a win/win situation. Go to Git Outta My Face website and get the prospectus! If you have ANY questions, email me at wizzlew...@aol. com or go to: http://www.gitoutta myface.com/ www.shereerensel. blogspot. com
