I would suggest when using twitter for people to remain authentic and open. Don’t just follow Artists, go for the things that you love, follow them be it skateboarding or gardening… Do a search and connect with like minded people in more than one interest. Chances are , your work portrays these interests anyway, so why not follow them?

In reply to Toni Kelly.

Toni: Honestly, I don’t have time to curate my followers. But if I do notice that they tweet something I don’t like or want my name associated with, I will block them.

Things are changing. Gotta keep up. Besides, you might enjoy it.

In reply to Kristine Schroeder.

Kristine: I think you can use the same account for both unless the auto-racing stuff far outweighs the art. The racing makes you multi-dimensional.
Having said that, I have a garden account. But I rarely use it. It’s enough just to keep up with one.

In reply to Kathleen Mahoney.

Kathleen: Thanks for being open to trying it. Your name is kinda important. Can you add “art” to it somehow? Here’s a post that might be helpful:

Thanks for the twitter tip! I hadn’t noticed the who to follow section before.

After reading your posts about Twitter, I thought it would be a great way to market my blog, and I just tried to sign up. However, someone is already using my name. When I try to use my full name, it’s too long. I want my user name on twitter to match my website name. How important is the user name? Or does it matter?
Thank you for such great advice.
Best
Kathleen

I’m so glad you brought up Twitter. I’ve been meaning to ask this question to you Alyson. For now I follow only people I am interested in but have gotten people who follow me that have nothing to do with art or birding which I have an interest. Are people following just anyone they can hoping someone might see their tweets. I feel like they are trying to get free advertising for themselves. Do you block the people you don’t want to see? Or do you let anyone follow you?
And just when I was wondering if twitter worked I found that it does. I follow Daniel Smith Art Supplies and they in turn follow me which I had forgotten about. Well I did a blog post about their new product Watercolor Ground and they picked up on it and sent me a message asking if they could re-post to facebook. So for some yes people do read and follow links. It has made me pay a little more attention to Twitter.

I guess I really need to look into it more then. It just seems nowadays there is a need to be informed and on top of every nuance of everything right away every second of the day. If it is really that valuable then I probably shouldn’t resist and go with the flow. It will be interesting what comes next. Are realtime updates our new reality? Will my clients watch me paint as I am halfway through my 63rd brush stroke? What a world we live in.
