Greetings,
Welcome to the Cooper studio, Jefferson, Iowa. Hey, it's Friday. At least I think so.
As I checked blog comments, I noticed a slightly interesting something about the most recent post here. If you didn't patch together the post title and one of the internal links, well, then all was craziness.
Let me explain. The title was "Cooper Studio Newsletter Published (Yay!)" Down in the text was a link to said newsletter. I completely knew what I was doing. Many of you maybe did not. These things happen once in a while.
Let's put it in black and white, better yet, red. Cooper Studio Newsletter Published (Yay!)
Now, all you have to do is click on those red letters, and I promise you, you will get there. And a tip for the viewer unfamiliar with the format: at the bottom of the video screen is a "box" with four arrows. Clicking on that will give you a full screen view. Much more enjoyable, I think. Have fun!
Later, Cooper

Cooper Studio Newsletter Published (yay!)
Greetings,

Welcome to the Cooper studio, where as a general rule, we try to answer the everpressing question "why do artists paint the way they do?"
Today we are reverting to section A, qualifier 2, subparagraph 413 where is asked:
"What on earth is up with THAT artist?"
And here's the answer
And of course I aimed for slightly fun. After all, we are still having winter, and we need all the help we can get.
So the painting has a name: A Fine Sound (July 4th At The Park), an acrylic painting on a nice little 12 x 12 canvas. And yes, of course it's available in my portfolio. The "fine sound" mentioned is a vocal artist , Bonne Finken, whose band we saw at Arnolds Park (Iowa) last summer. Truely fine.
Back to the easel. Have a lovely day!
Later, Cooper

Me, Myself, and I
Greetings,
Welcome to the Cooper studio, where we often attempt to answer that everpressing question:
Why do artists paint the way they do?
Answer: Because left brained people drive us to borderline ludicrous-osity. Instead of painting, I have just spent the last 5 hours 32 minutes figuring out how to fill out AND WIN over somebody's idea of mandatory questionaire fun.
However, it's a well documented fact, that right brained people are incredibly stubborn, fueled by large quantities of perserverance and competitiveness. That means I won, and am now certified compliant to PCI-DSS.
If you are an artist who exhibits at summer art fairs and accepts credit cards, you'll need to certify as well. On my other website blog I've given a couple of tips to make it slightly easier.
Oh, but I can't make easier the part where they charge you $85 dollars. In fact that's probably already hit your account. That's how I first discovered the whole situation.
