GROWING ACTIVITIES
31/08/08 08:50 Filed in: Work
This week has been crowed with compiling designs to
use for various stores (my on-line store fronts).
Christmas is upon us as far as design goes. In the
past Christmas was designed a year to two years in
advance of its exposure to the manufacturers market.
My activities today are different but still have many
components of the methods I learned in previous
years.
I have a portfolio of Christmas designs which I licensed under the pseudonym ‘Mary Parker’. This rather large portfolio of work is divided into various categories. I plan on taking those categories and opening an on-line store for each of them. This is a massive learning experience for me and the deeper I go into the use of the computer and the adapting of the existing work the more I find myself hooked on the process. Those categories are as follows: Snowmen, Santa, Let It Snow, Rustic, Religious.
It remains to be seen how much of this I will be able to configure and adapt, especially with my lack of knowledge, and placing of the designs in the various on-line stores. The gamble is ALL OR NOTHING. Apparently, it is part of my being. I have lived this way for many years successfully; however, this is going to be the test of all tests. I have accomplished opening the WILD store which contains images from my portfolio of designs influenced by fashion trend and its connection to nature particularly wild animals. Skins exotic and different animals from different countries and the primitive or tribal designs which confirm the like country. I have accomplished opening HALLOWEEN NIGHT, OCTOBER 31, a la mode (which reflect the images used in WILD and other fashion oriented designs) and SNOWMAN PASTICHE.
Opening these stores is one thing, filling each of them consistently is very hard for me. It is similar to learning how to juggle. I believe that from all I have read that these stores need to be driven by blogs. I, therefore, have created, aside from this site blog embracing the entire concept, a blog for all of Christmas, CHRISTMAS PIZZAZZ (this blog will cover all of this area), and OCTOBER 31 (this blog for all of Halloween carries the same name as the on line store OCTOBER 31). The idea is that with enough designs to fill and maintain a changing content in on-line stores, blogging about the images and how they were created and what and what I was doing to the designs as I progress through this wilderness of the web that I could with a lot of work and persistence generate interest. That is the premise. I might add, I want to start my objective of painting, again, everyday. (High hopes----ooooops there goes another rubber tree plant.)
At the same time, in building this site to blog about all of my activities, wheres, whys, and hows of the construction, this blog will embrace the whole and while opening and building the store fronts to accommodate my work, I will be able to build the albums of the portfolio which I introduce in this site introduction. That is actually by default as I compile the designs for other usages.
These are the headers I build yesterday and plan to create the stores for them:
This Snowman Pastiche is now in progress and I am filling it.
