      yes, yes, yes!!!!! you are not alone!
      my biggest suggestion (or what has worked for me) is to reach out to peeps who live in your city who have blogs. when i moved to CA a couple of years ago, i reached out to a couple of bloggers who felt like kindreds. turns out, they were!
      i'd also suggest using facebook to find peeps in your area. don't be shy! it IS a lot like dating which makes it hilarious.

      thank you! i should have more in the shop in the coming weeks. stay tuned. if you'd like to know exactly when they are available, i'd follow me on facebook/twitter/or sign up for my newsletter!

      yes. i use golden's spray varnish in gloss. i use the spray so that i don't smudge the charcoal or watercolor pencils that i used in my pieces.

      this happens to me often. and my biggest trick is to pretend that i'm in the mood. i make myself a cup of tea, put on some good music and tell myself "just one hour" and then of course once i start it's hours of bliss. sometimes getting started is the hardest part.

      i'd go with sites that already have templates that you can easily customize with your own photos and such. if i were starting all over today with no tech skills, i'd try squarespace or typepad!

      send out newsletters. advertise on blogs. send out short and sweet emails to big bloggers asking for them to consider featuring your work. do giveaways. be active on facebook, twitter, and a blog is a must, must, must. but most importantly, have fun with it!

      oh that's a hard one. i've been listening to a lot of brandi carlile lately. her new album is amazing.

      i love all acrylic paints from the cheap brands to the expensive. for heavy bodied, i like golden best. but for fluids, anything goes. for an in between, i LOVE claudine hellmuth's line of acrylic paints.
