It's a wonderful thing for an artist to see their work hanging in an exhibition. :-)

ooooooooh, too, too exciting, I sold 2 pictures at the Linden Postcard Show - a monotype print and an abstract.
Not bad going, there were nearly 1900 pieces on exhibit!!!! And I have a wee solo show in a great bar called "Workshop" in Elizabeth St in the city. Have to have an opening. What fun on a tuesday night in the city!! And "Watching" at B'artiste is coming up on 01 April, showing my new body of work which is a series of paintings and prints exploring the theme of "Burlesque", femininity, power and identity. So much going on, loving this momentum right now. If you are having a crisis of faith so to speak. well, get used to it, it's an intrinsic part of this thing called being an Artist apparently. Or you can make a list of your achievements for the year.So depending on the day I can feel either, for today I choose to list my achievements so far: Powercorp have advised they will be purchasing some prints for their head office and one of the regional depots. Jemena still in communication with plans to talk about what they might do with the prints further down the new track. They are redoing their offices, so original prints could be a go-er.
Solo Exhibition during "Month of Print." in the city. Possible show of work at "Workshop" bar in the city, late March, Accepted for the Toyota Community Spirit Gallery Emerging Artist Exhibition, Port Melboune - being selected for that also means I can try for their Travelling" scholarship. Work on show at the Continental Hotel in Sorrento, Work on show at Beleura Private Hospital And, I sold 2 out of 3 pictures on show at the Linden Postcard Show, pretty awesome considering there are 1900 pieces of work on show!!! It would be really wonderful if now the Jasper Hotel proposal comes off and I am chosen for the Rick Amore Print Prize. Pretty good so far methinks. More of the same please. xx |
