| journal page I am happily and bravely preparing for my art showing on February 12th. Thank you, thank you and a million times thank you for commenting on your favorites. Even though it was varied choices, it truly helped bulk up my confidence considering the fact that they all had some draw to someone. Had only a certain 5 got all the votes, I would have gotten very cold feet about adding the others for viewing. I keep telling myself that they are what they are right now, they are good enough right now and that I would never trade all the things I have learned about the marketing aspect. I have invested about $700.00- that doesn't count my time. I will either lose some money but gain valuable lessons or I will double/triple my monetary investment. I have put it all out there for you to see because it is my hope that you won't let your vulnerabilities keep you from showing your own art. If I can do it, anyone can because I knew nothing about the process. I'm JUST DOING IT. Yes, I am scared half to death. But even Georgia O'Keeffe said: "I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life... and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do." It has been a win/win - anyway you look at it. If you would like to receive an art postcard for my showing (I know you can't be there except in spirit) please email me your mailing address at krantzfarms@dfn.com. |
Someone asked, "Where do you go from here"?
Well, the above veiled face shows that I'm not through with faces. I want to make them
visually and texturally more interesting. The journal page above represents a copy of the painted piece I did
in the traveling/colloborative journal that is now on its way to Buffy. I can't wait for her talented hands to get a hold of it. (Those of you who have signed up- you'll be hearing from me soon but there is not a big hurry). It will flow.. on its own course.
I am working on organizing my home, my thoughts, my priorities.
I am working on my photography.
I am staying inspired and motivated by YOUR beautiful post of art and writing and photography- by our very connection.
I am RELENTLESS this year. I am going with the flow or swimming against the tide. I'm moving on.
Where are you going?
