Lemons VII, oil on wrapped canvas, 8×10

If you are on my email list, about every week or 2 you receive an email from me. It mostly says hello and this is what is in my blog and here is the link. People ask me about these emails when they haven’t heard for awhile. Some people don’t read my blog unless I resend the link. People also ask questions about how to access certain posts or if I have ever written about a subject.

1. If you would like to be on my personal notification list, you can email and ask, or you can use the Artist button at the top of the page and click  “Contact The Artist” . I might be able to figure out myself how to add one directly to my blog, but I’d rather be writing or painting or drawing or anything else!
2. If you would like to receive automatic notification each time I post, look to the left of this entry. Scroll down if necessary. See the thing that says FEED ON? (No clue what that means but it doesn’t mean lunch is coming, sorry.) Underneath, see Posts RSS? click on that. It gives you a place to enter your eddress (isn’t that a clever word?); then, each time I post, you get an email from WordPress with a clickable link to my blog.
3. If you would like to learn about a particular subject, you can scroll down to Categories and click on whatever subject piques your interest.
4. If you missed an entire month and would like to catch up, you can scroll down to Monthly and click on the month you’d like to read.
5. If you are looking to read other blogs but don’t know where to begin, scroll down to Blogs I Follow and click on any of them. Each of those blogs may have its own “blog roll” with clickable links to other blogs. This is a great way to find interesting reading material and learn of new subjects. I find other blogs to be great sources of information and inspiration. For example, I recently read a blog about blogs. It said lemons are cheerful and welcoming. Really? Do you feel cheered and welcomed? I hope so!

Thanks.

Class dismissed.
