Hello Readers!
Thank you so much for spending time here with me on my Typepad blog! I appreciate all of your visits and all of your emails and comments more than you can possibly imagine! I've decided to move my blog to my main website and I hope that you will all follow me to the new location: www.jeneanmorrison.net.
I've been thinking about making this leap for a while and have recently read a few things (which I'll talk about on the new blog) that have prompted me to make this move. Until a short while ago, I had been maintaining two websites (one for my designs, one for my other artwork) and this blog. I decided to combine the two artwork websites into one and since I am using Squarespace and they have a blogging feature, I've decided to do my blogging on that site as well. Although I have a link to my website in the sidebar, I've noticed that people rarely visit the site. I would like for readers to see more of what I am about and I think it will be nice to have all of my art and my blogging under one roof!
If you have subscribed to my blog (THANK YOU!), please make note of the new location because I don't want to lose you. And if you have bookmarked me, please update your bookmarks. Oh, and if you have been so kind as to link to me, would you mind updating that, too? I bet you didn't think that my move would be so much work for you!
I will keep this blog up for a while with this post on the main page so you will know where to find me but eventually I'll be deleting this blog entirely. I was able to import all previous entries so all of the posts you've seen here will be viewable on the new blog although, just a warning, some of the comments got out of order in the translation. I also haven't had a chance to add my links yet, but I will get to that soon!
It is a little scary moving away from Typepad and blogging in a new location. I feel like I've gotten to know so many of you and I'll miss you terribly if you don't visit the new blog! In a way, though, this feels like a fresh start and I am looking forward to a new beginning. I have struggled with finding a voice at times and I want to be more thoughtful in my blog posts and provide more interesting content. If you have any suggestions about what you'd like more (or less) of on the new blog, I'd love to hear! I get a lot of emails from other artists and designers who want to know more about getting started so I thought I might share what I know and talk more about my experiences (so far) in this career. I also plan to share more of my knowledge about design.
One last thing: Do you guys remember that post where I said I was going to stop apologizing and downplaying my work and instead post about it with pride and confidence? It seems I forgot that and quickly fell back into my old habits. Well, this time I mean it! I'm going to focus on the positive and all of the great things I have to offer so I plan to unapologetically share more art!
Thanks again for spending time with me here! Now get on over to the new blog and let's hang out!
