I love to talk. My family nickname when I was very small was CRJ, short for Constantly Running Jaws. I’ve always had a lot to say. As an adult, little has changed; I’m opinionated, verbose, and fond of the lilt of language, (not to mention the allure of alliteration). Finally technology has caught up to me! The Weblog has been invented! Of course I have my blog here on my website where I share not only my work (some in progress), but interesting tidbits of artistic information with other artists and art aficianados. Then there is my facebook Fanpage (are you a fan yet? Here’s the link: Silver Dragon by Patricia C Vener fanpage) where I am beginning to interact with more people who are interested in me and my work (I’m slowly building albums and followers). Of course I also have a LinkedIn account for professional interactions (where I’m known both as an artist as well as a teaching astronomer).

It’s not enough, apparently, so now I am also writing (one article published, two articles in progress) for the artist group Indie Smiles. I’ve had articles published at another entrepreneurial site, Home Jewelry Business Success by Rena Klingenberg and in a local advertising paper.

I love working with words as much as I do working with paints and beads. Art encompasses so much more nowadays than it used to and there are as many ideas, opinions, and opportunities to explore as there are artists and people who are fascinated by the arts. If you have a special fascination you’d like me to write about, just send the request to me and I’ll see if it’s something that gets a rise from my passion. If I do use your idea or suggestion, you will receive a gift coupon for a discount against a future purchase from one of my online shops.

Let art be part of your life everyday!
