One of the most asked about questions is "How do I use social media for my business?"..Translation, "How can I whore my business out on Twitter and Facebook? As you know, I myself am a "Twitter Quitter", having shut down my account since it didn't increase sales or add any value to my business. But there are alot of people who swear by it and it does benefit there business is some way.There are no "hard and fast" rules or magic wand that can give you success with these outlets, but the following may be some info that can work for you.

SOCIAL MEDIA FOR YOUR BUSINESS: WHORING OUT YOUR TWITTER AND FACEBOOK

Spring is right around the corner and personally, I cannot wait! It's one of my favorite times of the year. So I thought to get into the season I would share Stephanie Ryan's beautiful watercolor paintings with you. To me, they celebrate the joy and colors of Springtime. Her florals are elegant and whimsical while her little birds are completely endearing. Aren't they gorgeous?

In the past few years, work by the Sydney-based artist Mikala Dwyer has shifted away from its feminist, post-punk inclinations and toward a focus on the occult. Here, Dwyer discusses her two current exhibitions, “Panto Collapsar” at Dublin’s Project Arts Centre, which is on view until March 31, and “Drawing Down the Moon” at Brisbane’s Institute of Modern Art (IMA). The latter is the first major survey of her “paranormal” works and can be visited until April 14, 2012. I’VE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED in exploring an “extra space,” something between two traditional spaces, like an extra dimension or an extra language. That’s why the objects in my installation are almost irrelevant, even though there seems to be a huge amount of attention placed http://artforum.com/

On Originality (Also, an Octopus with a Balloon) « Corvus tristis: Science, Craft and an Odd Bird

So this morning I woke up and scanned a rather unique drawing which, when I first drew it, seemed to have popped into my head unformed. I was quite proud of it, and even got the post half written before it occured to me to google the basic concept. Because really, just popping into my head? http://corvustristis.wordpress.com/2010/10/19/on-originality-also-an-octopus-with-a-balloon/

I'm in love with the mesmerizing work of Yellena James . Her organic, poetic, alien-like gardens and worlds seem to vibrate with their own energy. Her work has been shown around the globe, captivating those lucky enough to be gaze into her magical realms. I also can't help but be amazed by all the talented artists that come out of Portland ! I feel lucky to be so close to such inspiration.

Marion Bolognesi.

How incredible are these art illustrations by Marion Bolognesi ?? I remember seeing her work a while ago, but this time round when I came across it via Design Folio , I couldn't help but be captivated. "She hopes to capture the emotion & beauty of her subjects without hindering the natural fluidity of her medium." I did some works a couple of years ago using watercolours, and I think after seeing these works, it may be time to get out those brushes again! Truelly worth the visit to go check out her site :)

Hi friends, I realize I've been lacking in posts over here on FB. This time in my life has been completely wrapped up in mommyhood and Design work, so I had to make that painstaking decision to let something go for a while and unfortunately it's my blog which I've been running since 2005. I'm not getting rid of it entirely for hopes that some day I'll get back into it again. I'm leaving you with what has inspired me for over 5 years in hopes that It will continue to inspire you in the future, and become a constant reminder for me that it's "OKAY" to start a new chapter in my life and still be inspired by beautiful design.

It inspired me to question, “well do *I* have an astigmatism?”…leading to an inevitable google search. Good advertising?
