There is so much going on in my art room right now...
It's a chaotic mess to anyone looking in. It's kind of a chaotic mess to me! Somehow, I'm preparing for my first time selling art in public. Okay, I must say, it's not really my first time. It just my first time in over ten years! Now, I'm ready to jump back in and present my artwork in public again!
In June of 2015, I felt this strong desire to begin exploring my artistic skills again. I've got my list of goals written down but over time, I've discovered these goals take longer than I'd first imagined. My family has patiently and lovingly tolerated (and supported) me as I take on the project of preparing to show my artwork in public again. On top of the framed original watercolor paintings and the packaged Giclee art prints, I've added some other items to my merchandise. I know I've got to play this out right in order to be successful. High ticket items are a tough sell next to other items sold at the arts & craft fairs. I need to have a strategy for more affordable price points for selling to a wider range of people and pocket books. You'll see that I've been thinking through this thoroughly! This place has been a madhouse with so many projects going at once.
