branded.



I have an addiction.  I joined the Pinterest world and am totally obsessed.   It’s completely normal to pin until my eyes are bloodshot, right? Or pretend to be sleeping under the covers but really adding pins in bed? It has gotten so bad that my husband got a little jealous had to give an intervention and we now have rules about it.  I can't help it, what's a DIY junkie to do?


Pinning of course!  Wanting to connect with other  people passionate about photography, I began a board called "My Art" where I pinned pictures from my blog.  I was hoping for something but never fathomed it would spread like it did.  It was crazy to watch my pictures start re-pinning from the single digits, to double digits, to hundreds to  over two thousand! —In only a matter of days!  Which has me thinking... maybe I should have watermarked these?

So thank you Brea, Mae & the Mosher’s for letting me pin your pictures in the name of art.  Which are now re-pinned on 2,000+ boards & counting.

I'm in the works of creating a watermark that will be on all my pictures from now on.  I like to call it my momma bear stamp where I assume ownership and responsibility for my work.  I am excited for this opportunity to grow as a visual artist.  

Blessings,
Meg
