IF I had only one virtual outlet I would choose my blog, it enables me to post art, communicate, have conversations, sell, acquire exhibits, meet new people, share about events, artists, writing, and it's free. I have built an interactive community there. I recently joined a group, The Art Beat where communication initiates online and we meet at exhibits and events. I am so glad I joined. I moved from a public storefront to my home studio which I am very pleased about yet there can be moments of isolation. Blogging enables me to virtually invite company into my studio, into my space where I share my art, thoughts and news. I post in progress works, if it is a commission they can see it evolve and it is exciting to be a part of it. I also use my blog as a teaching tool for those I mentor. The list just seems to be building so I will stop here. Thank you for exploring this subject. Bill,

I like being a part of the tribe. This says exactly where I am at, written delightfully. I have a magnetic attraction to good writing and your subject discussed today starts my wheels turning.
