Who Knew?!

I have just recently completed the largest Art Show I've ever done. Modestly sized, there were about 14 artists there, but easily 5 or 6 of us are photographers. Luckily the competitive aspect was not really there as one photographer was a locally noted portrait artist, another specialized in landscapes, etc. My work is pretty eclectic and while I have elements of some of those, I don't fit neatly into a category.

I took an intentionally limited inventory as the show is on an island you can only reach by ferry and no one drives. In this section of the island, you can't have a vehicle (not even a bicycle!) unless you are emergency personnel. It's also not *that* but, but I didn't want to port too much in. That was smart as when we took the show down, indoors though it was, it was raining buckets outside.

Too late for long story short, but I had a successful outing and I'm sufficiently encouraged to go on. Many thanks to dear friends Tom B, Benn, Matt, sister Deb, partner Bonnie, other twin Susan and the great staff where my prints are made. I feel like I'm truly Sharing Vision.
