I really can’t believe that the end of 2007 is here, but I can’t argue with our spinning globe. It seems that just a few days ago I got used to the fact that it was 2007 and not 2006… Now I need to get used to a whole new year all over again!
Anyway, this is the time of the year that everyone tries to sum up what has happened in the past 12 months. I will try and add my impressions of the most important art events that occurred around us in the year 2007. Enjoy!

Facebook has certainly taken over the world along the likes of myspace ect. However i just do not understand it, it is not as easy to navigate as Myspace, so how do you get the most out of it for your blog. I have my website http://www.kimtdesigns.com on facebook but i see no traffic from it. If anyone can make any suggestions on what i may be doing wrong, please let me know. This blog is such a helpful resource for any art minded person. I will be back again.
