Network from the privacy of your own studio
Does your working life include a little too much time alone?
Bring some new energy into your studio through social networking.
Maybe not every artist is an introvert, but at least half of us are.
The only problem with introversion is how easy it is to become disconnected from the flow of ideas going on out in the world. Trends can pass us right by.
The good news is that you don't even have to step outside your studio. Technology is a wonderful thing, so take advantage of it.
There are groups and communities geared toward artists all over the web. Join one (or several) and you'll discover a new way to keep in touch with trends, ideas, and opportunities.
As long as you don't have a webcam, you can stay up on all the latest news and make new friends without even brushing your hair.

smARTist® Move of the week:
Find one online community this week that seems like it might be a good fit. Take the plunge by posting in a forum.
Until next time, wishing you continued creative flow,
Ariane
