I am stunned! I was forwarded an email that a local art gallery was looking for artists to put some pieces in a new restaurant opening up. I answered the call and assumed that I would be one artist of several that would put pieces up in this restaurant. It turns out that I am the ONLY artist for the show for a whole month! My first solo show! So it is not a big gallery but it is a start! And I have heard from one artist that he would much rather do the coffee shop shows than gallery shows. I don't know the difference to prefer one over the other. So this show is exciting to me!
I was concerned because I have no money, how am I going to be able to get my prints made and framed for display? I have a financial backer! His wife and him are going to partner with me to get my career off the ground! Isn't that exciting? Now if I will just sell them all....that will be a huge blessing!! It still amazes me that they believe in me and my skills and talents enough to invest in me. I have grown up all my life with people being skeptical that I would be successful in anything, and these people believe in me enough to step out on a limb for me. WOW! It makes you want to succeed even more, strive harder, and market to the max.
