This Week: 6/7 through 6/13

Published on Jun. 6th 2009


Monday in SEO for Artists - After writing an introductory tutorial on SEO (search engine optimization) for all of our foliotwist artists, I thought it might be a helpful article for EmptyEasel readers as well—so I’ll be cross-posting that on EE tomorrow.

Tuesday in General Art Advice - Carol Taylor recently submitted a step-by-step article explaining her methods for keeping an organizing home office. I’ve already started following some of her advice and I think you’ll find it useful too.

Wednesday in Featured Artists - Colorado artist Jennie Brigham is a talented oil painter with a penchant for creating bright, eye-catching paintings of fruit. Read the full story by Lisa Orgler on Wednesday.

Thursday in Selling Art Online - EmptyEasel is reviewing another online art gallery this Thursday, but unlike most, it’s only for college students, art professors, or recent graduates. If that fits you, make sure to drop by.

Friday in General Art Advice - At the end of week, Charlene Brown will be sharing an interesting suggestion for painters, both digital and traditional. Come back on Friday to learn how she “paints history,” and how you can too.
