I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

All the art that's fit...

I read this article in CNN this weekend and began wondering if this isn't a direction (online marketing in the arts) that Ron's digital art could take?

The art of the internet - one frame may not fit all

Artists Jeff and Leslie Cohen share a studio, a home in Marietta, Georgia, their kids Spencer and Emily, and fast-growing status among collectors of contemporary American work.

Their venues and the strategies behind them, however, are as different as their canvases.

Together, wife and husband have explored an online art market still in a promising but uncertain infancy. Jeff has been formally recognized by his peers on eBay as Best All Around Artist, a leader in hanging wares on the auction site's digital walls. Leslie says her message-driven approach looks better under the halogens of a bricks-and-mortar showroom.

But these former graphic artists will tell you that neither traditional galleries nor the humming halls of the Internet offer the perfect answer for fine art.

Follow the link at the right for Ron's Just Pictures, and tell me if there isn't a future in online marketing for that type of next generation digital art. The possibilities are interesting.
