Sculptr

Gallery services like Sculptr and Boundless serve to elevate the nature on online art sales and demystify the art collecting process for many. I personally really like selling online, it makes sense given my online experience and physical weaknesses, it is also a great way to tap into international markets…. The photos of my latest works have been taken with my new camera which I love – I will post more on that later.

More on the Teacher Scandal

Well, the teacher getting fired over the field trip is bigger art news than the Klimt sale now I think….

Children exposed to nudes.

Even though parents have to approve out-of-school trips for their children, at least one apparently didn’t realize what an art museum might have on display…. The poor child – who no doubt has seen Brittney, Jessica and many other “stars” cavorting in next to nothing on TV – was badly traumatized by the experience and the parent complained.

New Toy!

As I am doing some online selling, working hard on my online presence, and starting to approach galleries for representation I need top notch presentation…. So, based on recommendations from photographers and much research I have bought the Panasonic DMC FZ7…. It’s one of these cameras that has great automatic facilities and does great work for minimal effort but I also have the opportunity to work completely manually and add different filters and stuff so I think it will be flexible enough for my needs now, and later on. mmm, America’s Next Top Model is on now, an all new season!

No No Nanette: No Girls in the Guggenheim?

Where The Girls Aren’t by Jerry Saltz: The programmatic exclusion of women is partly attributable to the art world’s being a self-replicating organism: It sees that the art that is shown and sold is made mainly by men, and therefore more art made by men is shown and sold. This is how the misidentification, what Adorno called a “negative system,” is perpetuated.I have been watching the trends on this with alarm, it is a true fact that women are under-represented in the art industry…. maybe we need to set aside our fears and worries about our babies and send them off to the galleries with a packed lunch, cry and then be proud that something we gave birth to is doing so well.

Brr! High Vibes? more like high Vibrates!

The High Vibes festival was dampened slightly which sucks but there were still quite a few people around. It was very neat, such a cool, free festival with hippies dancing in the street – pure expression everywhere and my work on display for all to see – a pretty cool feeling 🙂 It reminded me how far I am from my corporate career and how happy I am to be back in the world of art and expression and freedom…. and how I am now, truly free.It was a very cool feeling indeed.

Opening Post Mortem

Last night was so great, the show looked fantastic, it had a great vibe. I think the main difference, for me, was that I felt much more confident in my collection. Seeing my paintings up there, the results of all my work, made me feel so good. I knew I had done my best, each…

It’s here!

I am so excited about tonight, I can’t believe it’s all here, and done and ready! yet, I don’t feel as panicky, or stressed or worried as the last one. I feel good about the work I’ve put in, and the prices, and everything. It feels right somehow. Today I am going to be disgusting…
