Acornmoon: Wonderful Artist and Marketer


Acornmoon is another site which makes me stop to marvel at some of the wonderful dynamics at work on the Internet.

Valerie Greeley is an illustrator and textile designer who is currently creating new fabric collections for the quilting community. She writes, "This blog is my place to show current projects and to share inspiration. I hope to highlight some of the talented individuals who have inspired me. I have a passion for pattern and for creating books from start to finish including the illustration,decoration, printing and binding."

Her blog contains regular posts of her experiences, her associations, and even a contest. She is an engaging writer as well as a very talented artist.

In terms of marketing I like her simple, memorable name for her site. She Googled well and her site was instantly retrievable. The design of her blog is elegant and simplistic. It's apparent that acornmoon is one effective way in promoting her talents and in procuring commissions at her business site.
