My version of an art "mixed tape" is a bunch of really great
info and inspiration for us as we head into the home stretch of summer. Here
are several of my favorite recent Artist Daily blog entries and American Artist online articles that
have stuck in my mind and taught me great approaches on how to work with art galleries; plein air strategies; oil painting techniques, and more.

And what's great about all these digital resources on Artist Daily is that
they are there whenever you need them. You can travel with them and "move" them
so much easier than tons of paper copies. That's why the downloadable
collections from American Artist
magazine are great for me! I can take them with me wherever I go, and that
convenience factor is only matched by the wealth of information inside—a whole
year's worth of the magazine! Our 2008 Collection and 2009 Collection are
available now for download. Plus our Collection Sale starts today! Enjoy!
