Keep Up With Your Industry

No matter what your discipline, there are professional groups, conventions, magazines, websites, blogs, seminars, classes and more that cater just to you. So why haven't you joined, attend or read these?

Being a working artist/artisans is lonely and hard enough. Don't isolate yourself as well. I know I have written about this before but it is just too important to not to mention again.

You need to know what is going on in your industry. You could be missing out on great contacts, a new product, a trend or just plain old support. So...

I am starting a list of creative resources, starting with one that has helped me along the way.

Today's creative resource is:

SALI, a group for the professional and hobbyist in the world of decorative painting. There are Chapters, a newsletter, quarterly magazine and a great convention.
