Warhol was a brand. Yes, I know to invoke that name is BS, but let it sink in. He was the first artist to establish himself in fine art/publishing/film production/etc. How did a humble shoe illustrator from "Redbook" do such a thing? How does Coca Cola (brown sugar water) own a whole isle in the grocery store? Duh...Branding.
As practicing artists in the 21st century, this stuff is as important as acrylic paint, silver or whatever your media is. If you are reading this, you got this far. Now is time to click a couple more buttons and begin to mine what is essentially a "free" medium...the cyber art festival circuit.
Connie gets it. And, we need to get it. Top of mind is Facebook, Twitter and this blog. What about Tumblr, Pinterest, Flickr, YouTube, LinkedIn, Google+ and your own personal blog?
This my friends is the stuff that dreams are made of? Push a few buttons and take a chhha chhha chance. All it takes is time and the results can be the equivalent of producing a magazine ad or television commercial. This link will get you started...thinking that is.www.newyorkartists.net/blog
