Well hello dear readers. It has been a couple of months since I posted because I’ve been busy painting watercolors and selling them.
At the same time, I’ve been pondering how to best put the two things I love to do, art and writing, into one online venue.
My first thought was to design another site altogether for the paintings, which I did. I got a few new subscribers on that site and remembered how long it took to get a good following here at Idle Minutes. So, I’m going to scrap that site and combine everything right here at Idle Minutes.
Dunno why I didn’t think of that right off the bat but hey, like Robert Frost I’ve taken the road less traveled and that has made all the difference.
Don’t Worry!
- I’m still gonna write and sketch just as before…the same illustrated observations on life as usual
- Tucked into those posts will be a quick note to let my readers know if I’ve listed new watercolor paintings at eBay.
- Those watercolor auctions will be listed right here on the blog under the “Affordable Fine Art” column at left
- I’ll also be listing auctions there from my favorite affordable artists who list on eBay.
- Last but not least, I’ve made it really easy to get Idle Minutes in your inbox - see that red box at left? And those RSS subscription links just below it?
So the changes are all for the better, see?
You’ll have a bit more variety to peruse here at Idle Minutes and I’ll hopefully sell a few paintings to keep my stomach from growling. And hey, you got a new website look and feel in the bargain which lists ten posts at a time now instead of one.
And since I finally have my online act together, I’ll be posting on a regular basis again so your inboxes and RSS readers will have something a bit out of the ordinary to liven them up 
Over the next couple of days I’ll be adding a few things to the sidebars so keep one eye on that while you read the posts.
Thanks so much for reading Idle Minutes and please, comment if you get the urge. I love to hear from my readers and I always respond.
