"Nap Time" (watercolor) and One Year On Steemit

While I had my lot near Traer, Iowa, a neighbor (also named Lee) raised beautiful horses. One day, while driving by, I took a reference photo of these two mares and a colt dozing in their pasture in the midday sun. I painted this watercolor in my studio.

One Year On Steemit

It was exactly one year ago today that I started posting on Steemit. 🎂

I have truly enjoyed this first year of my Steemit experience: I think posting my artworks on Steemit is a wonderful opportunity to get my images out into the world, plus it's fun to see posts by some of my fave Steemsters: Hive account@exyle Hive account@gringalicious Hive account@thepholosopher Hive account@reddust Hive account@mayasky to name just a few. (Sorry if I left anyone out.) These are all people that I would love to meet in person because I feel like I know them already.

BTW, Hive account@exyle ("Grilling is life.") and I apparently joined on the very same day, so "Happy Birthday" to you, Mark! He received the same notice from the SteemitBoard, which he talked about in his vlog today.

At any rate, I look forward to posting in the future on Steemit and growing with the network. I would like to thank Hive account@ned and Hive account@dantheman for creating such a great opportunity for me to post my art and have it viewed by many around the world.

Much more to come, friends!

Business on Steemit

Hive account@exyle also vlogged about business on Steemit, and his wise words got me to thinking about selling my art somehow directly to Steemsters with SBD. I have a limited edition giclee print that I sell on my website, and I'm thinking about offering it on my Steemit blog, perhaps with a special, limited-time price. I noticed on my eSteem phone app that there's an Escrow feature which I'm assuming works something like this: a trusted party would hold the SBD until both parties are satisfied with the completed transaction. I'll be looking into this further.

Have a superlatively stunning day today and every day!
