Stalking sounds bad, isn´t it? I have to stalk other peoples fb pages. I have to write about the 5 artists and their paintings and photographs for a Filipino magazine in Germany. They will be having an exhibition this weekend in Sweden. My publisher will be there to take photos and I am here to write about the art of these artists. For me, it sounds weird to write about them without knowing them and so I contacted them through Messenger and ask questions about them. It seems they know me already through our PILYA blog magazine. I hope I can deliver the writing with good results. So you see, I am busy today again. I will add a photo to this discussion when my Ipad is fully charged as my photo is in my Ipad and not in this computer where I am writing now. Anyway, have a blessed day everyone. The photo is a painting of Erris Head in Ireland painted by my hubby. Thanks for reading.

I do that as well, especially when it comes to finding someone in related to my work project. Sometimes it’s weird too that someone stalking me. Lol

Yes, it is sometimes a must @JustBhem. I know I am stalked, too that is why I am careful what I post in fb and usually I put Public in the setting which are not about family and so on.

@JustBhem just the same with me. I don't also accept friends request of relatives who don't even talk to me in real life. Not to mention ignore me when I see them. So what's the point of accepting.

@thelme55 That is why also I don’t accept friend request from someone I don’t know.

Some teens may call stalking as gathering facts nowadays. Good luck with your piece.

Maybe it was good that you stalked them before contacting them . . . that way you can ask informed questions (you did your research ). Good luck with the writing! Beautiful painting!

Yes. That's why they have that page for letting the people know their art. Thanks @Letranknight2015.

That's great, you had contacted the artists. It is good PR for them, they might get new clients because you promoted them. Your husband's painting is nice;I thought the black ones(at a glance) are sea creatures.

Yes, I have and I was answered by the co-founder of that artists association in Sweden. Yes, it is nice. Nope, the black ones are the shadows of the cliffs. Thanks.

There are a lot of artists on FB---I would imagine that they like the publicity when you ask them questions

You can do it. Stalking is not bad if we are going to use for the purpose of research and no other intentions that are bad.

I think seeing their fb pages will let you know a bit better and give you ideas on their works

He is indeed. Thank you. No Erly. I was the one who was stalking their fb page because I need some materials for writing about them. The artists have their exhibition in Stockholm this weekend but I can't go there, only my publisher who told me to write about them. This is another kind of stalking

You probably are not stalking, you are following and I'm sure the artists enjoy being followed. Lovely painting.

It's wise of you to use Messenger to contact them before writing about them. Glad you are doing well!
