Strathmore Artist Papers! New Product!

These are not my photos but I have permission from Strathmore Artist Papers to show you them! I was contacted by Strathmore Artist Papers in March 2010 to have some of my art journal pages featured at their NAMTA trade shows..Attended by art retailers and suppliers to educate them on what types of art and art journalists are doing today! I am sure you can recognize a few other artists in the presentation display! I am over on the bottom left and second to the right of the computer monior screen. You can also see their new product displayed either side of the monitor. Visual Journals!!! With heavy duty papers! Because I know as an art journalist my journals take alot of abuse! LOL

These lovely Visual Journals will be shipped out to stores starting in June 2010 and will be available shortly after that! When I hear! I will let you know!

Here is a little close up! (Above)

Now here is a little hint about what is going to be happening! It will be exciting! Sorry, a hint is all I can give you at this time! I know it is not a very good hint but if you look closely you might figure it out! LOL...I just love teasing you all soooooooo much! tee hee!
First guess will get a little something special! But you will have to wait till I have it on hand!

WE HAVE A WINNER! SORRY ALL GUESSES ARE NOW CLOSED!

I WILL ANNOUNCE THE WINNER AND WHAT THEY WILL BE RECEIVING SOON!

THANK YOU!

xoxo

More news coming soon!

Love and hugs,
