Hey all! Well, I've got both websites up and running - www.arcatatherapy.com/daventyler.php4 for my massage business and http://www.daventyler.com/ for my artwork display. Both are working out really great. Probably going to start putting up some youtube videos for each.

For the massage site I was thinking of putting up some ideas to give to people on how to do self massage by using tennis balls against the ground or against the wall. I recently had a really bad neck problem going on - pretty much the worst I've ever had. I just woke up one morning with a horrible nerve type of pain. So I started doing more stretching, qi gong, and doing the self massage techniques with the tennis ball. I was seriously thinking of going to the chiropractor which I never usually do but I really think the massage was the best thing for it cause it's all gone now. Thank God... So anyway, that's the point I wanted to get across with those videos is that it's great to go get a massage, but I know that it can be expensive and since people usually wait a couple weeks in between sessions, it's really good to know these techniques so the healing process can happen that much faster.

For the art site I was thinking of doing a couple videos of working on a painting or drawing and speeding them up just so people can see the process that I go through. I've seen some other people do that on youtube and thought it was so cool to see it in fast forward. I think it would be a good addition to the site so people can understand my process of making art.

I'd like to thank all the great people I've worked on in Arcata so far. We've been in town for less than a year and I feel like I know so many people already. Take care all, and hope to blog at you again soon!
