Favorite Artist: Jeremiah Ketner of Small and Round

Posted on March 12, 2010 by natashawescoat

Jeremiah’s whimsical landscapes, I would say are more magical than mine. His characters and ladies are evolving. His work is becoming more detailed and vivid than ever and I’m falling in love with them. If you can ever see these in person, it’s a must. 

They are amazing in person. His latest show (which is online) is going on now at Solo show @ AMF Gallery, March 2010

Please contact: andrewmichaelford@gmail.com for availability.

What’s happening on Art Candy?

Posted on March 12, 2010 by natashawescoat

I’ve been considering and planning this for quite some time. I’ve always wanted to incorporate more posts that inspire and feature other creatives doing things on the web. I’m hoping to start my little webshow the best way I can. Despite the fact that I don’t have any proper professional equipment for recording videos or doing interviews. It’s all grassroots, home grown simple blogging. I don’t know exactly where I’m going to go, in this route, but I hope to offer more than I have before.

And of course this is still my blog, where I will share the latest in what I’m creating and doing. First and foremost.

- I sincerely love and admire you all who read this blog, contribute your thoughts and feelings and share the blog with others. I really want this to be something special and entertaining for you all. Thankyou again!

Surviving Analog in a Digital World

Posted on March 11, 2010 by natashawescoat

As many of you artists who are adopting a web based initiative will find, you will become exhausted by the constant hustle and flow of social media work. The obsession for information and constant communication can be overwhelming. If you are easily swayed by new things or tend to get lost in chat, you have the potential to burn out and disconnect from reality too. Too much time in front of a digital world can be disorienting for our sensitive minds.

Artists like myself never truly stop using the tools to communicate and promote, but there comes moments of burnout, blackout periods in which I recognize that and refuse to use anything. I even forget where my phone is. Read more »
