*THE ART OF DAN WALTZ FACEBOOK FAN PAGE PRIZE GIVEAWAYS!

RULES:

I first want to thank everyone for joining my Facebook FAN Page. The response has been awesome and I really appreciate all your comments, questions and posts.

Now I want to make things FUN! I want to have a PRIZE GIVEAWAY!

Here’s how it works:

Your name will be automatically entered into a drawing when you become a Fan of my Facebook FAN Page and remain in the drawing for any future prize giveaways. Every time I reach another 100 fans on my page I will give a prize away. I will continue this drawing for every 100 FANS up to 1000 Fans. Prizes will either be one of my signed art prints, signed books, or one of my many other products that I have (Sorry, my choice). After I reach 1000 fans I will then give a prize away after each additional 1000 fans, up to the 5000th FAN. I will then give away a grand prize of one original painting (Again, sorry my choice). Now you don't have to be the 4000th, 100th, 300th, 2000th or even the 5000th fan to win. You just have to be a FAN of my work and join my Facebook FAN Page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Art-of-Dan-Waltz/283167838664).

BONUS!: If you are a Fan on both, my Facebook FAN Page and my BLOG (http://danwaltz.blogspot.com/) there may also be a bonus gift given so make sure you sign up there too, just in case.

*All are eligible and everyone will have equal chance of winning and yes you can win more than one time. Who knows, there may even be some prizes in between.

Now, the more FANS, the more PRIZES, and the faster the FANS come, the faster the PRIZES will come. So you all know what you need to do. You need to tell everyone you know about me. Send them to my website (http://www.danwaltz.com/), and send them to my Facebook FAN page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Art-of-Dan-Waltz/283167838664). If they like what they see they may become a FAN on my Facebook FAN Page and that would be that much closer to another prize giveaway. Lets get this ball rolling. First prize will be given away once I reach 100 fans, which is getting very close.

Thanks again and good luck!

* Sorry, shipping of prizes to Continental US addresses only. If you live outside the Continental US and you are a prizewinner you will be given the option to accept or decline the prize. If you accept the prize you will be responsible for all shipping and handling charges. All prizes are final and not exchangeable or returnable for cash value. Rules are subject to change without notice.

Large Bird with a red cap visited the feeder on Christmas day;
a male Pileated Woodpecker. Looks like one of Santa's little helpers.

If you have followed my career in the arts you would know that I started out as a wildlife photographer. I sold a lot of photography back then and I still take a lot of photos. Now days I use my photos for reference materials for my paintings. I've taken a lot of nice photos over the years and have recently desided that they should be displayed and available to my customers. A photography section will be added to the site shortly. I hope you enjoy.

Seen the Christmas Carole in 3D at the IMAX last night. 3D affects were pretty awesome. A must see!

The imagery that can be projected on the silver screen from the artist is Hollywood and Pixar studios is just amazing and makes me want to get better with my own art. Thanks for all the inspiration!
