About

My Etsy shop is http://www.etsy.com/shop/destructivetesting

I’ve started a blog to explore the ‘creative process’ that we go through, from IDEA to finished WORK (I’d rather use that term than PRODUCT).  And, what motivates different artists to do this ART thing anyway.  Whether it’s mostly $$$$$$’s, to save the environment, to meet cool people, because we couldn’t think of anything else to do, whatever.

I’m also interested in artists’ workspaces.  I’d like photos, whether it’s the kitchen table, the garage (like mine), or a deluxe ‘studio’.   Photos and comments about a work in progress.  I’ll include any links you send to completed work, or Etsy shops or other websites.  I don’t intend this to be a blog to list items to sell, but will link to them.

If you don’t have the time or inclination to do this now, I’d still appreciate ‘followers’ and being connected to other artists you know who might be interested.  Of course, any replies on the blog are welcome also.

If you send me an email (mfsmith46@gmail.com), I will post it on the blog, and include any photos as well.

thanks,  Mike
