Now, I know that the people who come and read the blog are more interested in painting supplies, art supplies, oil painting and drawing as well as pastel and watercolor. But the Google people just look at the content and see mixers and cooking and other inn and restaurant stuff.

The problem is that we all know the context. So, sketching and painting, color and values, oil, watercolor, pastel and charcoal drawing doesn’t get mentioned as much as cooking and rooms, pillows and sheets. Because, we provide not only art instruction but these other things. And when Kim or I blog, it’s about what is happening around here. So we talk about the people and not the substances. However, it’d be more useful if Google, and here, it they are using people to review, then good, if bots, let’s hope I have but enough keywords in this post, would have painting supply ads.

So, what do we need? Well, we need our art students who buy art supplies and who paint and draw to put nice painting and drawing comments into those blog entries that talk about our art classes. And use words such as oil painting. Watercolor is good too. Pastel and drawing is, as well.
