Award from Joan



Thank you Joan, for this award. I appreciate the kind words you said about me and how good it makes me feel. Joan Tavolott is an artist that I became acquainted with on the Scavenger Hunts on wet canvas. She does amazing sketches and beautiful watercolor paintings. Be sure and click on the link to read about the award and see the other artists she honored.

I pass this award along to those of you that I follow on my blog. That is a few more than seven. :) I regularly check and read about twenty blogs daily, and about 80 blogs pretty often. I'm not counting the artist magazine blogs like the Pastel Journal blog, etc. It is hard to pick only seven. You know who you are.

Some of my favorites are on the blog roll in the side bar, I try to keep the blog roll to artists that post often. Some really good artists with great information don't post daily so I don't put them on the blog roll. I also like to change the blog roll once in a while so you will find new artists .. should I put all of them there? Hmmm.

I just had an idea, I will post one or two of the blogs I read at the end of each one of my posts. It can be my daily awards! You will see how many there are in a few months! My Blogs of the Day will be numbered so we will find out how many there are, no particular order.

Jo's Blogs of the Day:
  1. Joan Tavolott, Watercolor and Sketching, read above -- Watercolors by Joan
  2. Regina Burchett, Friend and pastel buddy -- Fall Shadows
  3. Rose Welty, Fine Art Friend -- Rose Welty, Studio Talk
So there you are then, we will see how this list grows.

Thanks again, Joan.
