I´ve just found a new playground, google +. If I think myself as an artist or Illustrator it is much more fun than Facebook. I feel almost like travelling when beeing there with people all around the world, sharing pictures and short messages. I mostly share my artwork, but also some photos and just found also Tenerife communities there! I enjoy very much looking at other peoples artwork there. So many talented artists! And so many beautiful, stunning photos. In Facebook I´m mostly with the people I know. I´ve also joined to German, French and Spanish Drawing groups in Facebook, but I feel myself a bit outsider there, because most of others come from just these countries, than me Mrs Tuomikoski from Finland. In google + I don´t get that feeling at all. Strange that Facebook has become so much more known and popular.
What comes to my artwork, there is a kind of chaos in my head, because I should do 10 things at the same time: make christmas cards, plan other cards, posters, a calender, decide where I make them, make handmade prints, have exhibitions, put my work in frames, fill in different kinds of official formulas, plan advertising etc. Sometimes I feel that I maybe should go back to decent work to have some rest. Yes, but a little later, part time or something like that, or when I run out of money. The big problem with decent work is combining it with making art, you just don't have enough time for both, not without letting your sweet home becoming a place of chaos and yourself a hermit, and remembering that I also spend my time playing the piano. Just started another screen-printing course, should plan some models for the next time.I add here some tiny photos of my latest artwork, christmas cards, finished and unfinished.
