Spring Comes!


How perfect that on the day of the SPRING Equinox that many great ideas were planted like seeds in fertile soil. My day was spent with incredibly generous people sharing both their time and talents. Two graphic designers shared with me ways to get my books and products online as offerings to art educators and their students. We discussed POD ( print-on- demand) so that art teachers could order a hard copy of my books, the company would print and ship the books to those who order and numerous other options. We discussed my Flash Card deck, calendars, paper portfolio packs, and more.
Another meeting with my mastermind group had us talking about the many details that each of us are involved in to get our web sites launched with the unique offerings for which we each feel a great amount of passion. The learning curve is phenomenal. Last of all, research at the book store with another friend had us learning about how others ( successful women) went about marketing their sites so that people could find them.
Think about it,the internet with the millions of sites makes finding your site kind of like searching for a needle in a haystack. I feel confident with such dedicated people surrounding me that we will work together to succeed. I expect positive outcomes!
I am so grateful for all of these people in my life. A very talented copywriter just re-wrote the copy for both of my sites. Next my web designer will be back to work on launching a new look to the art work on the web site.
I absolutely believe that when a lot of energy is spent on something that will be good for the world. The rewards will follow. It is back to the analogy of having planted a seed,in fact many seeds, and with the right soil, light and nutrients, the seed must as they say," Bloom where it is planted!"
I very much look forward to the day when all of these tasks are done and the communication will be frequent between art educators and art students.The sites will have taken on a life of their own. I will rejoice with a heart filled with gratitude for a dream realized, somewhere quiet, smiling face upturned to the warm sun.
