I just got word that a book I did drawings for is now available at Barnes & Noble, so next time there check it out!

Art Models Life Nudes for Drawing painting and Sculpting
by Maureen & Douglas Johnson

I didn't get paid from it, but the exposure is cool! Now to raise enough money to put my own book together...hmmmmmm. (and yes, I kept the original drawings that are in the book, as well as a few others that didnt get published.)

here is the email I received:


"We were at Barnes & Noble last night. As I walked onto the isle with
all of the art books a kid jumped like he was busted and quickly
stuffed the book he was reading into a shelf, and took off.
I got curious, so I picked up the book as he scurried away. I laughed
and was about to put it back, then I realized the cover looked
familiar..... Yup, it was the one from your site. I read your bio.


By the way, your art was the best in that whole book!"

Okay I know I'm not the only visual artist with a profile on Bakotopia, let alone in Kern county wanting some exposure for his art work, so all you visual artists out there lets take advantage of Bakotopia and start our own artist community there.

http://bakotopia.com/

Post your work and website links and lets see if we can't get others to notice that we too we can stand out in the crowd!

You can check out what I do at www.paper2pencil.com and if you are an artist, no matter the media, lets link up and start our own community and blog for VISUAL ARTISTS on Bakotopia at http://bakotopia.com/

With enough artists posting their work,  just maybe we can get a section set aside for us?

David
