Ok.....It's Official.....

I am completely addicted to photography!! I think I have taken thousands of pictures since I received my new camera for my birthday. I am probably driving everyone insane. I know I took over 400 at a golf tournament this last weekend and am now redoing all of my images for my Etsy shop! I really can't understand why I didn't appreciate the bark on a tree, a blade of grass, an individual flower stem or catching someone on film when they are not looking before.....I thoroughly love it. I thought I would share pics of my art studio which was originally supposed to be an office - hence the warm orange color! The art doesn't look so spectacular on this particular color but I figure I'll repaint it someday. For now it is just awesome to have a designated place to leave everything out and pick up where I left off each time. I've had people call or stop by wanting to come look and everything was in stacks or leaned up against each other making for an uncomfortable visit to look at artwork you are trying to sell! Needless to say - it is 100% better and now I can get back to networking online.....oh, I mean painting! Until next time......

Image Sizing

Ok......I have literally lost my friggin mind! I have been figuring out alot of things I can do on the computer that I never thought I would even try, BUT, I need to somehow find a way to change image sizes and that my friend is not easy for someone who can't copy and paste. Yeah, I know it's supposed to be a piece of cake but for some reason I can make my own business cards but I can't do that! I am going to be researching a camera that will take photos up to 3800x2400 at 300dpi, so if any of you have any suggestions without me selling an arm, I would love to hear about it! That would eliminate a ton of the issues I am having right now. My etsy shop is up and running, real estate has picked up tremendously and lo and behold, I decide that I just have to open a store on Cafe Press! That's where I lost it......love the site, but, it's not near as user friendly as etsy is in editing and even adding items. I have a long road to hoe on this deal.......would somebody please stop me!!!! Off to paint.......much better at that!
