Talk Faux
Inside In-faux, Inspirations, Loose Change March 24th, 2008Oh man, am I in trouble. A few months ago, I signed up for a faux chat/message board forum: Talk Faux. I had first heard about it from Dean Sickler at Dundean Studios and then from Donna Phelps at Sarasota School of Faux & Architectural Finishing. They were moderators on the site and told me it was a great place to meet other artists, share ideas, recipes and pictures. I had been in other forums but once something gets catty, I’m outta there. I wasn’t looking forward to repeating the experience, but I trust Dean and Donna and so I registered. Since my husband is in Chicago on business, I had some time this weekend to poke around the site.
Wow! What a great group of professional artists!!!! There is a definite sense of camaraderie and selfless sharing — and from what I’ve seen, it seems as if people on this site really enjoy talking with one another. I went crazy: I updated my profile (”FauxGirl”), introduced myself, uploaded pictures into the Gallery, joined in some discussions and started leaving comments for others who have done the same. I’m so excited…but I’m really in trouble since this is just what I not-needed: another outlet for this faux obssession of mine. :)
If you get a chance, check Talk Faux out — and if you really like it, register! Bet you won’t be disappointed…
