UPDATE One old/new painting added

Hello everyone,
I'm off to bed, but I wanted to post a little bit here saying that I added a new post to my Art Pages. I will be adding more when I get some more time to do so, this week!
I hope you all had a great weekend, it's snowing again where I am (New Brunswick Canada), and I myself believe we have had enough of it, we have had so much snow fall that we don't know where to put it!

The walk ways in between where our lawn use to be looks like a little gully, it looks to be about 2 to 2 and a half inches high (and that's not even where the huge snow banks are), and well the snow banks are all above my head and than some, here is a photo I took when I was walking to a friends house last weekend.

Have a good day ahead and good night.

Just a little post before I go to bed! I have been BLOGGED!

I got blogged about the other day! Check it out!


This is a great blogger, I have been sharing some chats with. They have a wide range of things to read about and some very funny posts too. They are very intelligent, and well worth the visit.
I hadn't been doing much on blogger lately, so I hadn't noticed it until now!
Sorry I hadn't checked it sooner, perhaps I was a bit self absorbed at the time?


 

I'm so shocked I don't really know how to express my gratitude, I feel honored to be mentioned on someone's blog! I really don't know what to say...
Thanks so much, I am happy to be considered as a friend.

PS - Hope all is well with you, You have been in my thoughts!

Backgrounds and added information content UPDATES! NEW PHOTO ADDED

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I am updating my site a little bit. The site isn't changing too much but it does look as if it has gone through a major change, because I am changing the backgrounds and borders. This means that the look and feel looks way different, as I am changing those things. Nothing else has changed, the layout is exactly the same.

However I am adding a bit of informative content to a couple pages, as I feel that some little explanation needs to be added due to new sites that get added to the "Links/Other" page. It is just an short explanation that some artist pages listed there "may" contain graphic/nude content. I only added it because some people can feel offended by it, because some as non-artist don't understand the concept of nude art to be a beauty and another expression.

I also would like to mention, that I do not place nude on my site, simply because I am a mother and have an 11 year old boy, who enjoys my art and I have found him looking through my books. Knowing this about him I do not have any nude drawings, painting or any form of nude in any of my art, due to his wandering eyes in my work. I'd love to explore, drawing nudes, but knowing he will see it, I do not. He is 11 after all.

So if you take a look at my site and go through the pages(which can also be found on the right side bar) you might slowly see my updated pages.

Have a great week everyone!

PS- You'll also find a surprise on this page that I newly added today!

A quick few words with some updates and pictures...Edited and more added to bottom of this post! Thanks!

Hello everyone!
I noticed I have some more followers! Thanks so much!
I also would like to let everyone know I have a new WIP(work in progress) I am adding to one of my art pages. It's just something of a quick sketching practice for me right now until I perfect it. That way I can just improve on my skills and feel more confident in my ability to replicate from photo, still life or live model references. It's an area where I feel most challenged as of right now. Please find edited added info below!

I have also been thinking of losing some of the ads on my site (except the hosting ones added by bravenet of course) and possibly add a donate button. It's in the mind as an idea, but not quite a set on page thing yet.

I will be editing this post later when I finish with my webpages in order to post links to the pages I have worked on today, so with that in mind, please feel free to come back here to my Art Pages blob and see if it has been updated, so you see if I have finished my webpage working today!

I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend.

Ann J

An extended Introduction! "Updates and About Me"..

Hello everyone,

If you have gone through my pages, you might see that I have added some new pages recently.

Art pages 5, 6 and 7 are all newly added. They have some really old drawings and paintings and some new sketches.

I have added a links page for some great offers, the heading is "Other Links", but I also have a links section on my "Home" page where I share links to other artists links as well.

Here is a little more about me.

Information about my site

Since this is my first real blog posting with more information about my site. I am just going to tell you the story of how everything came about, in a nutshell!

My website; showcasing my art, has come a very long way! The website itself started as just me playing around with html and creating a website for something to do. I didn't have any topics or any general idea of what the website would be about. But now that I have put more focus on my creativity, it has become so much more than just a regular website!

Over the years I have entered free HTML courses online; to learn more about website creation, for personal knowledge, of course! I had also join groups online for graphics programs, I gained knowledge and bettered my creativity in the process. These all being FREELY learned online, as a personal hobby. With these courses I took, I gained certification of completion! Even though those certifications were small, they gave me a sense of pleasure, knowing I had finished something I wanted for myself. Just simple things like that can give someone confidence to want to do more and better things for themselves!

I am going through my pages on my website and than when I am finally done that I will post what is new, my next blog posting with be a bit of an introduction.

Happy Easter!

About this Blog

Hello!
And this is my blog for my art website! This is the place you would want to be if you wanted to know if anything new has been added, and to where. Without this blog you would have to go to the website and go through all the many different pages to find anything new and try to guess what or where it might be!

This is also a great place to leave comments and or feedback about what you think, what you might like to see, or maybe even some opinion of changes you wouldn't mind seeing! You can make requests, set a challenge for me( if I am up to the challenge) or anything else you might have in mind for my art pages!

Please have a look around while I am still working and will add some new added updates here later one!

Thanks for taking the time to view!
