Just signed up for ' Artists Wanted' competion in NY city....
apparently if I get enough folks going to my site (click below)
http://ElisabetStacy-Hurley.artistswanted.org/atts2012
and clicking on the 'Collect Me' button,  I could have a paintng
up on a electronic billboard in Times Square.   Thought it sounded  like
a fun thing to try....so, please "collect me" ... 
(no, you don't really have to buy anything)

Hi,   Building this website is more work than I imagined...
especially since I was under pressure to get SOMETHING on here because my previous site went awry....Now, I'm not so sure it would not have been easier to just rebuild my old one....but, I'm making some headway here, so hope to get it completed soon, and then will just continue adding my "Newest" paintings to the list.   I've spent more time on the computer  since the first of the year than I have at my easel....that is going to stop! 
Hope spring comes early this year...looking forward to doing some plein air paintings....

Hello, new year, new blog, new website....
had trouble in website land recently, so am in the process of rebuilding.

Also, my previous gallery has closed (another victim of the economy)
so have begun researching for a new one....any suggestions?
