Licensing #art from Sharon Cummings, artist.

sharoncummings's avatarAbstract Art by Sharon Cummings

My art has been licensed by thousands of businesses and individuals all over the World.  Usually my work ends up on a wall, but sometimes it surprises me where it will appear.  A drone….Who would have thought?  It’s a design submission by one of my fans/licensees.  I hope they make it!

The Faces from the Sea — indahs: dive, travel & photography

Perhaps this submission is not something expected by the WordPress Staff on their face picture challenge. Anyway, animals have expressions and perhaps it’s more us who interpret their expressions. Their face expressions show their feelings, and this applied as well to the animals from the sea. There is a video showing how fish does have feeling […]

I Have O.C.D…

Mixed Media

2015

Everyone who knows me is well aware of how quickly I process. I think fast. I drive fast. And I paint even faster. When I work with acrylics, my work goes in a furious fashion. It’s all over in a matter of minutes usually. There are the huge beasts that require many hours, but the majority of my work is a race to the finish line. It’s just how I roll.

People have the mistaken idea that digital work is easy. It’s true that running something through a filter does not take much effort. But this little cutie took me over 5 hours to create. It is collage work and bit by tiny bit I form the image using one of my original paintings. Cutting and pasting….cutting and pasting….trimming….adding….tweaking…..It’s maddening in a way. Kind of like O.C.D. (which I have been clinically diagnosed with)…

Why Even Have An Art Blog?

#art blogging by Sharon Cummings, artist.

I am an artist.  I create art.  I don’t write for a living.  Someone asked me the other day why I blog.  It’s a great question!  I do not get a ton of “likes” and comments. Most of my followers are other artists and like minded creatives.  They aren’t buying my art.  So why bother?

Those that know me are aware of the fact that I do not do anything involving my art that doesn’t improve my chances of being seen by potential collectors.  So I not only blog, I share my blog with all of the available social media.  I get my blog “out there”. “In here” doesn’t do much for me.  Sometimes my shares to social media go viral. One blog got 5000 hits from StumbleUpon in one day!

Every single day I get a few thousand visits to my blog. My blog shows up in Google Search…
