Stopped in yesterday to the Palette & Chisel where the model for the morning session didn’t show up. The artists present took turns posing.
For the afternoon session however, a new model came for her first time posing at the P&C and being warmed up from the morning session I had a fairly decent time drawing. I was relaxed and though the pose was simple, I found it quite regal in part due to her hair.
 
  
WordPress used to be a decent platform that had in the past been very helpful to me and other artists in gaining exposure on the internet and developing relationships both personal and commercial.Â
But now it is just trash. Slow, sluggish to use, forces users multiple failed attempts to simply download images. The expectation is that if you struggle enough, you’ll give in and pay exorbitant fees to have them help you navigate the bullshit SEO labyrinthine mess they created. The artist job is to create the imagery and stories. That should be it! Hastags were simple enough but must have been too efficient and didn’t make them enough $$$$.
I have tried several times to add some more images from my files but with little sense or explanation, I’m having to close and reopen the site. Sometimes that works, sometimes not. Having invested more than a dozen years on this site I can only say it’s being guided by pirates and creeps who provide a sub par service to users.
