Hey Everyone,
I have some beyond exciting new to share with you today. Back in July, I was approached by Sally Robertson from Colored Pencil Magazine about being the new contributor for the Q&A portion of the magazine. Being a huge fan, I was completely flattered and of course said yes! I’m really honored and am looking forward to contributing to the colored pencil community and sharing advice from my experiences. This platform is going to give me an opportunity to expand upon what I’ve been doing here with my blog and reach a broader audience which I am so excited to do! I’m so happy to be part of the team and hope I can do my part to continue to spread the word about this awesome medium!
That being said, I will continue to post great content here, but it will differ from what I’m writing for the magazine. My first Q&A is the updated and expanded upon version of my blog post on how to organize your photo reference catalog. There will be new advice and content included in the magazine version so be sure to check out that out if you enjoyed my original blog post. If you have a question you can send it to contact@barbsotiart.com. If your question hasn’t been previously covered in the magazine you could potentially* have it answered by me in an issue!
You can read my contributions by purchasing the magazine through this link: www.coloredpencilmag.com/issues
