A Note To The Artists Whose Work I Share Here

I love art!

I would love to be an actual patron of the arts, buying pieces to enjoy and support you. It's one of my intentions and I envision being in that position some day.

In the meantime, I share the art I find that I like and would buy (hope to buy in the future.)

I am someone who feels art should be shared. I know many artists and they struggle financially. I'm also a networker, and like to share stuff I'm excited about. My word of mouth adverstising has brought business to many in many fields- restaurants, products, foods, bodyworkers, artists, doctors, therapists, workshops, etc. I find it the best way for us to share what we have and be able so support ourselves doing what we love. I find it a win/win situation.

I also see the internet as an amazing vehicle to have our energy out there as little beacons of light, providing us with incredible opportunity to spread the word about what we want to offer the world and get ourselves out there. I assume that is why you are on the internet to begin with.

I am aware that there are copywright laws. It is not my intent to violate them. I do my very best to give credit to the artists out there and provide a way to spread the word about your talent so that it can come back to you and bring you increased income. I don't contact you beforehand because this is a blog, I put these posts up quickly, I find the art as quickly as I can and I don't have the time to write you and ask for your approval.

If you want me to take your art, down, I will remove it within ten minutes of opening your email. I hope you understand the intent with which I used it, which was not to rip you off, but rather to celebrate you, your vision and talent and to advertise for you, too. If you do not want these gifts, then just tell me and I will find other art and artists who do.

Many Blessings and thanks to you!!

I agree with you that art should be shared. The reason I do my art is so peole can see the spiritual side of life. Hopefully they will get some insughts, a little knowledge and even a loving heart.

If you wish to share some of my work on your blog please do but add your usual link and credit. It may add a bit of light to your spiritual sounds.

hey Pamm,
i love your website and love your philosophies and passion for sharing, inspiring and empowering artists and others in all they do.

and i'd love to send you a copy of the movie 'Spiritual Warriors' to see if you would be interested in blogging about it. the movie is inspired by the book: Spiritual Warrior: The Art of Spiritual Living - and if you have a good look on the net about John-Roger - the writer/producer - I think you might find this movie a great fit with your blog. wikipedia has some great info and j-r.org has all the links ...

you can also view the trailer of the movie at www.spiritualwarriors.com, and find information about: creators NY Times #1 bestselling author Dr. John-Roger and actor Jsu Garcia; screenings across 47 cities in 20 countries; photos; and reviews.

thanks very much for your consideration,
look forward to touching base soon.
much love and Light,
