Herbie Hancock: Possibilities

I just watched this movie. Wow, how inspiring. Herbie Hancock is the guru of creativity and human spirit ambassador. This is a must see for all creatives. So, I wonder how a visual artist can find collaboration like musicians do? Herbie seeks out talent of all kinds and works with them. They all grow from the experience. He treasures creativity in the moment. I loved what he said in Japan that he used to think he was a musician, now he thinks he is a human being serving humankind through his music. Just the best inspiration! Let me know your thoughts.

New Painting: Sun Fire

Sun Fire, 9" x 12", Acrylic on Canvas

A beautiful sun is setting upon the mountains in Wind Canyon, Silver City, New Mexico. A painting of a sunset, mountains, sky in bold dark colors of navy blue, dark green, purple, and and orange. This painting is from a sunset I saw while visiting a friend's house. Nature continues to be my muse and inspiration.

AdWords and my CafePress.com Store

I have taken the plunge with paid online advertising with Adwords by Google for my online store at CafePress.com, www.cafepress.com/maryart. I have been diligently upgrading and simplifying this store in hopes that when people do click on my ad, they will like what they see. I'm working hard at making it easy :) to find things in the store. This is a challenge as I said in a previous post. I've pictured a couple of products that I'm proud of -- 2008 Southwest Calendar, Simplicity Mouse pad, Simplicity Large Mug, and Simplicity Tile Coaster.
