A New Decade - a New Blog!

Welcome 2010! A new decade - a time for new starts, new promises and new adventures.

And - Welcome to all the family and friends who have encouraged me to face this brave new world we coexist in and walk down more electronic pathways by adding a blog to my website
(www.ellertson.com)

My hopes for this blog:
To connect and interact more closely with those who find themselves on similar paths filled with myth, story, and art which lives in between traditional categories. (I hope to get some good conversations going.)
To share bits of wisdom acquired over the 40 + years I’ve been in the profession of making and selling my art.
To allow those who have taken different roads to glimpse the wonder filled, and often bumpy road we navigate.
To give insights into the way my work is created, where and from whom I find inspiration and challenge.
To share information and stories from shows, adventures and travels.
To let folks know of the pieces or stories I’m working on.
To encourage creativity in all fields, not just artistic ones
To demonstrate the joy and importance of working in ones community to support the arts.

My promises:
To post a blog entry once a week, if possible. (A bit more frequent to start...but I’m trying to be realistic - I do prefer being in my studio to typing at a computer.)
To respond to comments, questions, thoughts stirred up by my blog

My questions::
What would you like to see on this blog?
What questions do you have about my work, or supplies (I’m glad to share sources!)
Other thoughts?

Thanks for joining me on this journey. Here we go!...Wendy
