Thank you from my heart. I needed all these words of wisdom and comfort. It's true that as artists (as anybody!) we have to get out there no matter what others think. At the end of the day it's what we think...isn't it?

All galleries are very different in their specialties. So be prepared to go to several before you make a valuable connection. Personally, I haven't had the guts to put myself out there yet. Thanks for the inspiration.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15304481975396842711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125775553161450586.post-33666104236429041412011-06-06T20:23:12.270-04:002011-06-06T20:23:12.270-04:00this list of reasons makes me want to cheer! actua...this list of reasons makes me want to cheer! actually, it's making me cheer as i type. hooray for you.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16890334926669879532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125775553161450586.post-77736071069820061212011-06-06T16:44:36.937-04:002011-06-06T16:44:36.937-04:00Ha ha ha!

Tell me - could you tell what Calder cared deeply about if you saw one of his mobiles? Could you tell what Kathryn cares deeply about if you just see one of her foreclosure quilts? Most conceptual art does not show what it cares deeply about.. so why did you care so much about this mans opinion? You have a beautiful sense of colour and balance and rhytm.. that should be more than enough.Kitty Kilianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14064522970749701948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125775553161450586.post-38953259658065986002011-06-06T14:35:41.101-04:002011-06-06T14:35:41.101-04:00To be rejected is bad.

But you can not be mislead, even if that is not always easy.<br />Gallery owners often follow even just salable art trends .....<br />You do what you must do, because you have to do it. It's like jumping over a large puddle jump and move on.<br />I like your new work (and the old anyway).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352999617324383290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125775553161450586.post-32411317789959397402011-06-06T11:14:39.068-04:002011-06-06T11:14:39.068-04:00Thank you all so very much!
