Portfolio and Artfolio

The Artfolio and Portfolio are going to be located at http://jeffthomann.cwahi.net/. The temporary portfolio is located there now. The more permanent portfolio and artfolio should be up and running over there sometime over the next few months... I'm slowly adding and editing more in to it at the sample testing page at http://jeffthomann.cwahi.net/index112013.html. Right now the artfolio oil painting pages are about the only thing completed and there are several dead links to other parts of the site... Feel free to bookmark and come back later as I can and do plan to edit the heck out of it and add more content in the coming weeks and months.

http://shoethatsnaps.com/

http://shoethatsnaps.com/ is my wonderful wife's new website.  Check it out!  Tekla sells One Sole Shoes through various shows and home parties.  The One Sole Shoe is an amazing product that can literally save women thousands of dollars on shoes annually.  The revolutionary idea involves snapping the soles of various shoes to the tops that go to them together in a very simple way so that the tops and soles are all interchangeable, allowing hundreds, if not thousands of looks with a very small number of individual products and parts.

Tekla found out about the product one night several months ago when we saw the CEO of the company on Shark Tank.

Tekla found a shoe obsession online after much searching, and discovered that the company did home parties, so Tekla became a home party rep.

Hard Board

I finally got around to buying some "hard board" at Lowes the other day. This stuff is like masonite, but it's sort of finished on both sides instead of just one like the old sort of masonite. I will probably need to sand it a bit and put gesso on it since the stuff I got is brown like normal masonite. They did have some white panelling board near where I bought this but that was about $16.00 per sheet. This stuff was about $7 or $8 a sheet. I had the guys at lowes use their awesome saw thingy to cut it down in to a bunch of 7 1/2" strips. I'll later go with a saw at home and cut off little 5 1/2 inch strips to use for paintings or color pencil drawings. I think for pastels, real masonite with the fuzzy back would be a nice support. For color pencils though, this stuff with a maybe gesso on it after I sand it down to rough up the surface a little might do nice. It got me a whole bunch of potential paintings that can be 5x7 " or so (plus 1/2 inch for borders in case I put the paintings in a 5"x7" photo frame eventually or scan it and crop it down for use on postcards on cafepress.com or lulu.com)... will be an interesting experiement. The board was 8'x4' orignally... so you get a lot of board for your money.
