Sofa Art

This platform, for me, will be used to talk about real issues that are expressed through art. Not art for arts sake. Let get real. There are a lot of things happening in our world that art can and does lend a voice to. Here we will see and discuss works of art that gives us information that helps bring value and/or understanding of this world we all live in.

Now, about “Pretty” pictures, don’t get me wrong, I love looking at “Pretty” pictures. As a matter of fact, I own some. I even make some. But there is a place for everything.

About Me
My name is Mary Foster. I am an artist/photographer, educator and coach. I have been a creative person as long as I can remember, which is a very long time :). I love talking art as well as making art. Oh yeah, I also live a vegan lifestyle. So who knows, I may share some of my thoughts on living a plant based life style. We’ll see how it all unfolds. Anyway, I hope I can bring value to this Semite platform and I hope you will follow and give me some of your precious up votes. P.S. You will see some “Pretty” things here also! Hey, “Pretty” art can also inform. Just saying. Iseefabriano.jpg

Hey @artsaboutit. It's nice to see you here!

Hello artsaboutit! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
