Hi folks !.... if you received this message then you succedded in
becoming a member of the googlegroup
"a watercolor a day". This is where we will discuss our particulars
in trying to paint every day, share ideas and also learn how to post a
painting on our new group blog and basically get going on this new
adventure. I have posted my painting for today and you can too... so
if you want to see the site just go to..

http:awatercolorpaintingaday.blogspot.com

you might want to bookmark that url as it is a lot to type. I
couldn't get anything shorter. All the goodwatercolor blog names have
been used ...


If you have a completed painting and want to know how to post it to
our blog.. just write me at shantmarie@aol,com or shant...@mac.com
I'll walk you thru the process. You should have taken your photo
already and have it cropped so none of the background shows. You
also need to know where it is stored on your combuter so when you
have to retrieve it, you can find it fast. I actually created a
folder for my "painting a day " paintings in "my pictures". This way
I don't have to search for it. No need to resize it the blogger site
will "fix" it for you. If you have questions about phtographing your
work we can discuss that too.

Hi Shanti,
I surmise that this is the way to reply in the blog. I'm not sure
about uploading a file -- well, I know how to upload a file, but not
sure how anyone would know it's my painting or your painting -- other
than the fact that your painting would undoubtedly be better than
mine!!!
I like this blog thing and think this will work for our small group.
I have so far painted two days in a row -- a major miracle for me.
Yesterday, an apple, today a banana, and tomorrow -- well, who knows
-- it will start with the letter C.
Thanks Pat for coming up with this idea.
Louise
