A work in progress....


This is my latest piece that I hope to have posted in my shop by tomorrow ( Tues.) afternoon. It seems that my summer has been nothing short of running in circles. I purposely did not plan much organized time for the kids, however everyday seems to be filled to the brim . I have less than a second to myself . I long for the lazy days of summer! I hope to have more new pieces in the next weeks, perhaps I can find the time in between Lego star wars camp , play dates, doctors apt. etc!!
I do have a question to pose.... I live very close to the local regional library. It is rather big and has a gallery space . They switch out the artist about every month. My kids always ask " Mommy, when will we see your work here?". I wondered this very thought as well. After some investigating , I was told that they accept only the work of " professional artists". This sounds very intimidating. What does this mean?? What qualifies you a " professional" ? Would I really want to be a professional anything?
I will have to let you know how this turns out...... could I actually have the courage to try this??
I am keeping my fingers crossed.
Talk to you soon,
Courtney

If you sell, and people buy your art, I would say you are definitely a professional. Give it a try! The worst that could happen is they say no.

What!? Who in their right mind would pass up the HUGE opportunity to share your work with people?

Hope you do go for it so your brilliant treasures can brighten people's days.

I also hope a sincere apology will come your way after they get to know you and your work. Duh!!! They would be the lucky ones.
