ribbon Press Release




[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?

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 ALL for your very kind comments!

I was just looking at the countries the various comments came from: the US, Italy, Singapore, Brazil, Canada, Italy, the UK, Spain and Denmark . Isn't the Internet a wonderful place when we can share our work with so many people from around the world?
