SandySandy.com is now over twenty years old! I created it in 1996 and have maintained it since then. There were only a handful of web"pages" online back then and artists' websites in the young online world were very few and far between. The first online artists were pioneers of sorts, as most of our kind resisted as long as they could. But like attracts like, and the isolated few connected like a tight knit tribe from all corners of the continent! It was then that I met two of my most influential art mentors, Monte Guynes and Robert Genn. They have both passed now and I am very grateful and happy to say that I took a leap of faith and on two separate occasions, flew to the west coast and spent time taking workshops, traveling with them and getting to know them in person. I am getting a little off track here, but after looking at my "Spirit Art" work on YouTube from one decade ago, I just wanted to acknowledge their influence on me, my writing and my art journey. Trouble with the web, is that technology changes so rapidly and you really have to stay on top of those changes. It's sink or swim, in the now densely populated, fast paced, online world. Have a great day! Hugs, Sandy “We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as a river or an ocean. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better.” ~ C. Joy Bell
