I had such great plans. Plans within plans within plans and all has come unstuck. I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for them dang pesky kids and their chicken pox. I had a week where my parents were over to help with the kids and house, but as that was the week my daughter decieded to get chicken pox my 'get stuff sorted' time went out the window and now my youngest has the pox. YAY kids. Love them really.
So I'm behind on where I'd like to be but, hey that just means I've got stuff to do. Tonights missions are totally online, entries for competions and fairs.
I've been reading up on art fairs, and it would seem that they can be a good idea, but you have to take a long term veiw and be in it for the long haul. They cost a pretty penny to be in, any where from £200 for a stall up to £500 in London. The idea is you need to commite to being a regular exhibitor over a period of years, at least 3 before you will begin to realistically see any return. That's a huge outlay for any artist and craftsperson.
In other news my work has been accpected for the Summer Exhbition at the Menier Gallery arranged by Exhibit Here. The two pieces are shown below. I also have to update alot of the work on these pages. YAYupdating. I'll be doing that over a few nights.
