Governor's Portrait Unveiling

[Carol Norton]

[QUOTE=Michele Rushworth] Articles and/or photos about the portrait appeared in seven different area newspapers, and on two or three TV stations. Most of them did mention my name, and three of the articles were feature stories "about the artist", not just about this portrait. I guess learning how to write a press release and sending it out all over the city before the event really paid off!

Michelle,
Your beautiful portraut, evident talent and your successful efforts toward the business end of portraiture are an inspiration. Can you recommend a book to learn how to write a press release?

[Michele Rushworth]

A lot of the art marketing books (see the book section on this site) will talk about press releases. I'm sure you could also find plenty of information about it online too.

Thank you, Michelle. What a welcome reminder of great resources! I just ordered 4 books.

Congratulations on your wonderful painting and the great exposure it is giving you.
