Welcome to indy.com. Nice art blog! If you have any questions about the site feel free to send me a message.

Ben Neff on Jan 21, '08 at 04:16 PM

I once asked myself "Why don't I attempt to create a dialog with all of the other people who have "art/artist" as one of their tags?" Though not knowing where the move might take me, I felt that the tag alone was reason enough to become a fan of yours. Welcome.

Essex on Jan 22, '08 at 11:10 PM

Though it hasn't happened yet (I don't think), I hope there comes a time/event when the "art" people of indy.com can meet and mingle. I suspect one of the best possibilities is one of IDADAs First Fridays. Particularly during one of the warmer months, perhaps an identifier could be worn that would help break the ice and be a catalyst to conversation between people in the indy.com art community.

Just a thought.
