And thanks for the support about selling my pieces as small artworks rather than cards. Your feedback is great and very helpful!<BR/><BR/>lynne...I know what you mean about wanting to click on the images to get a closer look...does anyone out there know how to do that? It usually works for the top photo but not the following ones. <BR/><BR/>jo...as always, thanks for your support and your kind comments about my cast paper and ink drawings. I'll have to put some real thought into figuring out some quickie techniques that don't compromise my artistic vision!<BR/><BR/>jacky...thanks for the nice words. It's the subtlety and fragility that I love about the cast paper pieces too. And I'll be sure to check out Karen Ruane's link.<BR/><BR/>robyn...thanks for weighing in as well! You and Jo are right about sometimes having to do the quick sellers to pay the bills. And you both earn your living through art so you know! So I'll try to come up with a quick seller that fits in with my vision (or at least doesn't clash!).katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18123301505801621709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824602162296203395.post-12201630873203015322008-08-03T09:37:00.000-04:002008-08-03T09:37:00.000-04:00I agree with all of the above...though some times ...I agree with all of the above...though some times one has to churn a few things out as quick sellers to help pay the bills.

They actually remind me a little of some of the white on white quilt/embroidery work that Karen Ruane does (link is on my blog). Love the subtlety of these pieces.<BR/>I think you should sell these as small artworks. I am not into the mass produced pieces, would much prefer these little masterpieces.Jackyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07347191565099767347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824602162296203395.post-29057600835861181072008-08-02T18:10:00.000-04:002008-08-02T18:10:00.000-04:00Kate, your cast paper is really beautiful, it look...Kate, your cast paper is really beautiful, it looks embossed...so delicate, just a joy to behold.<BR/>Yes, I agree with Lynne, sticking with your style and vision is number 1.<BR/>Although, as an artist trying to earning a living out of art, thinking up new quick techniques is important too.<BR/>Your ink drawings are superb, and yes I agree Kate, they need to be sold as mini artworks, not on cards.jo horswillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297114250711730382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824602162296203395.post-75294207795870695872008-08-02T16:05:00.000-04:002008-08-02T16:05:00.000-04:00kate, can you see me nodding? um hum, i sure know...kate, can you see me nodding? um hum, i sure know how days like that go... i do love your ink drawings though... i (of course) tried to click on them so i could examine them closely-- they sure look beautiful from this distance. but of course i vote for sticking with your style and vision no matter the cost or how much time it takes. your vision in cast paper is breath taking.lynne hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682812765012431260noreply@blogger.com
