It has been fun but hard work uploading 220 of my images to the Amazon website just before Christmas. It will be interesting to see how on-line sales through such a major outlet will work for me but it was nice to be head hunted anyway!
I envisage that www.amazon.co.uk COULD become the main outlet for the biggest range of my prints, over the coming year, though I will continue to offer prints through www.glyndavies.com. My Anglesey Landscapes books, Volumes 1 and 2 are ONLY available from my own site or from the shops and galleries in North Wales.

The realities of running a gallery!
Whilst everyone else is out enjoying the stunning light of the last few days, I have been stuck (read frozen to keyboard) in my gallery, waiting for customers to come and tell me about how stunning the light has been over the last few days :-)))
It is so easy for us to only see the fun and glamour side of another's business, but not the sometimes bitter reality (tic!). I'm am here for customers many of whom are feeling the economic cold, who enjoy the "warmth of feeling" of my pictures, but who reluctantly re-brave the cold, hands still in pockets, leaving me with just the warmth of their compliments. It's actually been a VERY busy Christmas period but I am keeping my fingers crossed (over the radiator) that 2009 does not put all of us out in the cold.
I did manage an hour out the other day and here is a picture to prove it. Icy cold but hot colours!
