Application Time Again
I'm back. No excuses but a little too much travel. And, with 5 days in front of me before my first show application for the 2012 season, I'm again questioning my images for juries. Second guessing. And third guessing. Should I do the bright landscapes or the simple, starker pieces, or upclose depictions of my buildings. I really don't know. For those of you not in the art show world, most shows use a jury to select the actual artists who will display their work at a show. They way the jury reviews the work is usually an online presentation of 3-5 images of actual work and usually an image that shows a typical booth set up. The amount of time they have to see the pieces is extremely limited. And sometimes I get accepted and sometimes I don't. Which is a bit frustrating. Sort of like applying for your job every day. So, I'll ponder my current images, try to imagine painting some terrific pieces all in the space of a week (not!), and hem and haw until that first deadline. Wish me luck!
