So long....farewell....

Unfortunately, friends, readers, general public - I don't have the time to keep up this blog.

As of today, June 12, 2009, this blog will not be updated. However, there are other fabulous places to get art info:

www.denverarts.org
The Westword website
A few other places....

And my personal blog will remain up and running. I will probably incorporate a little of what I was trying to do here on that site - review work that inspired me, maybe interview artists, use that as a 'look into the studio' sort of thing.

So, you can find me at rachelhawthorn.blogspot.com, or at www.rachelhawthorn.com

If you want to take over this blog and do some updating, reviews, etc, please feel free to contact me!

Directions

I've got a lot on my plate, so I wanted to ask you, dear blog readers, what exactly you want from this blog...so that I can decide if I am the person to give you what you need! I'm currently running two blogs, working full time, freelancing, and running my own art career - so I need to determine if consolidation is the way to go.

If you would be so kind as to take the following survey, that would be great, and really really appreciated by me! I will have no way to find out who you are, it is completely anonymous, and private, so feel free to be as candid as you wish.

Thanks so much!
