I watched the commencement speech he did for Stanford University, he was a brilliant man. So many things people are passing around about him really hit home, he has certainly left his mark and left this world better than he found it.
"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it." Steve Jobs

Well, it took a bit of time, but after getting hooked on Facebook to stay in touch with family and friends I ended up setting up a page for the gallery and it's been really fun to have a place to post what is going on in the Gallery, what's new, things going on that are related to the Art/Craft community...so, now I am learning about blogs, & tweets and also Flickr for photo storage. It seemed more overwhelming in the beginning but it is finally making more sense how they all connect and so I will be using this to keep informative updates and a journal of the happenings in the gallery and a bit of Nanette Orijinels (my designs) to share with anyone who would like to know more about what goes on behind the scenes.
Sign up to follow me and I will keep you updated with events and what is going on.
Look for me to do more updates as I set this all up!
Hope you are having an enjoyable summer!

Word of mouth has become our best way of getting our future customers to find us. We have tried ads in many different publications in our local area. I think most are getting so much mail in the newspaper and mailbox that they don't have a chance to look at it all and it goes in the circular file many times. I have just returned from a show in Philadelphia where I acquired new artists work and ordered new designs from artists we already represent in our gallery. I took a seminar of social networking and found I was on track as I had just set up a Facebook page a little over a week before I flew to Philly. But, I learnd so much as well that will help to stay in contact and also offer a bit of what goes on in our gallery behind the scenes. There are so many ways to find what you want on the web, and I find more and more are spending a lot of time obtaining information and things they need in this way. Nothing replaces the quality of holding a great newspaper or magazine's articles & offerings that you can hold on to and refer back to anytime you want to pull it out and look at it again. But in our busy lives I think there is more and more of a trend that people are turning to ways to seek the information they want to receive catering to their specific interests and needs. Staying in touch with what is going on targeting what is important to the individual is what makes subscribing to feeds on Twitter, Facebook, and so on. One has the freedom to recieve information and stay up to date with whatever they want to know about, and unsubscribe if their interests change and have it all taylored to their interests and needs.
I am just getting this all setup, but I will be posting information about what is going on in our gallery and anything I think may be of interest about American made products, the American Craft industry, artist news and more. Please subscribe to my blog and stay in touch with what goes on in Spirit of the Hand's world.From Spirit of the Hand's blogspot.
