I participated in the Fall Art Show at the local art association. I was suprised by the lack of particpation by the membership. There were about 20 artists represented out of a membership of around 150 artists. But then I looked at my own contribution and it was a struggle to come up with pieces that I could show. You have to have the artwork framed and matted (big expense) or at least matted and protected with clear plastic sleeves. ... more expense. Did have someone interested in my art that they may want to commision some work. It might be nice to work on something that you know will be a money maker! The art assn is having a juried show next spring so I will be able to produce some new artwork to enter. And they have another show at a festival in the summer whch brings more opportunity to sell original artwork. I have so many ideas right now that its hard to settle on one to get started. should just write them down and throw them in a hat and pull one out and get started. Hmmmm that's kind of a good idea.
What gets you motivated. I usually have to have some kind of dead line imposed to really light a fire under me, but I need to get over it and just get on with things. Overcome the indecision... On to fight the confusion!
