Reconnecting because of FASO Newsletters
Several years back a college friend who was receiving my newsletter forwarded it to another friend who had also attended college with me.  She was good enough to drop by one of my art receptions and say "hi".  We hadn't seen each other in well over 30 years!!   It was terrific.  In 2012 she made it possible for me to show my art in a Solo Show at the Crain Art Gallery -- Part of the Crowell Public Library in San Marino, CA.  It was a great experience!

This year I was invited to return to the gallery.   My SOLO SHOW will hang in the Crain Art Gallery until January.  The tags on each painting have the Title and a QR code which can be scanned using a smartphone to find out stories and provenance about paintings of interest AND there is a Pay Pal button if anyone wishes to purchase paintings.  

RECEPTION
I'm very excited to be able to chat with friends and meet new people next Saturday, November 20, 2021.   

Collectors 

A previous collector contacted me to let me know that she would be at the reception.  She had visited my website and had chosen two -- possibly three paintings she would like me to bring.  She wanted them as presents for her daughter.   YAY!

 

FASO Features

I decided to explore some of the features available such as the artwork and inventory reports.

There were several.   I decided I liked the look of the report called a "wall label".    I had already created labels using the QR codes because it would be the only way visitors to the gallery could find more details or even purchase artwork.     HOWEVER, since I already had some potential sales, I decided to create sales receipts using the information on the wall tag plus price, sales tax and a "thank you".   It gave the sales receipt a professional look that I liked.   

Thank you, FASO

There are many great features that my FASO website provides.  I don't use all of them but I did enjoy learning about some new features and trying to make them work even better for my needs.

 

What do you think??  What are the FASO features you like best???

 

I'm being hopeful -- probably overly optimistic so I created a "sales receipt" for each of the paintings in the show.  Do you think I'll be able to use them????

 

Come on by the Crain Art Gallery this Saturday from 2-4 pm.   I'd love to chat and to show you the artwork in the gallery.
