It's All Moving So Quickly


This week is moving oh so quickly and I'm having a hard time keeping up but having said that,  I nevertheless do feel great.  I imagine I feel this way because finally things seem to be falling into place and I see the progression of what I've been working towards.  I am in the flow so to speak...

Within the next few weeks I will be beginning a new blog over on WordPress.  The WordPress site will also house my website.  Nice and simple .... keep it simple!  This blog will stay as a more journaling type of blog  mostly for my friends and family but the new blog will represent the progression of my artwork and a few other fun things ... guess you'll just have to stop by and visit for yourself.

For those of you who have emailed asking me if I ever intend to sell my work online.  Hmmm... that may happen with the new site.  My vision all along has always been to sell the work in galleries as I think I'm just that type of artist and always will be but that being said, I may offer small 6"x6" or 5"x7" pieces online for anyone who is interested.  Perhaps a piece a week. Before I begin a new larger work I always, always, complete a smaller piece, a study you could say.  I never want to committ to work on a bigger scale if I haven't already worked out some of the logistics on a smaller format.  Those pieces would be the ones I would be considering offering.   I'm still playing around with the idea in my head.  We will just have to see where that goes .....

For the past year or so I've been following a gallery I would absolutely love to be a part of.  A few months ago I gathered up my courage and sent them an intro letter as well as a link to my website ( it seems most galleries are now interested in being approached this way rather than the formal package in the mail).  I heard back from them quite quickly and we've been corresponding ever since.  I will not name them because I'm not 100% sure of what will happen but I have a good feeling about the direction our conversations are taking.  They are not in Ontario which is a plus since I'm looking to find representation outside of my own province.  Fingers crossed....

It is a busy time....


A special "Happy Thanksgiving" to my friends and family in the United  States.  Eat lots of turkey and enjoy time spent with your family and friends.
