Holiday Post #4, from Karen Cooper

Published Dec. 16th 2008

This post is part of EmptyEasel’s "spread the holiday cheer" experiment, where we’ve simply invited everyone to share their three favorite artists or art websites.

Here what Karen Cooper wrote:

"My three most-visited sites are. . .

1. Fine Art Views Blogs at www.FineArtViews.com/blogs

Of course it matters that I have a website with FineArtStudioOnline :) but I read their group blog because it shares the daily life of other artists like me.

2. Mary Connealy’s blog at www.MaryConnealy.com

Although not a visual artist, Mary’s art is the written word. She has a way with words that sends you away smiling EVERY TIME—and don’t we all need a little of that?

3. Empty Easel at EmptyEasel.com

Dianne Mize’s articles (in the painting tutorials section) are especially helpful to me.

And if I may be so bold to add a fourth. . . : ) I also subscribe to an online mag that is absolutely excellent. It’s at CreateBetterPaintings.com , and I visit it frequently. Non-subscribers can go for a brief visit but that’s not nearly as much fun, I’m sure."
