whew, im scared, gathering everything up for our first "art festival" i guess thats not what it really is, here in sweet home oregon we have the Jamboree, a huge country music festival, you have to be jurried to set up a booth. i was jurried by a few of our artist here but did not pass. rats, they told me i have potential and to take classes at local com collage, gee, im blind i wonder if the collage has a way for me to see my canvas, well enough. so the seninor center, whose bus i ride to town is letting me pitch my tent, and try to sell a few painting-i need the $$ honey for supplies..lol wish me luck, i am so scared.. i am so grateful to the center, they are the best of people, picking me up, making sure i can carry to the door my grociers, etc. well ya'll wish me luck n say a prayer. i'm going for it, maybe it will lead to something else. big hugs
Best of luck, Deborah! Those butterflies will calm down as the day goes on! You'll remember the experience for awhile. . . . . The launch of your art fair experience! Imagine!
well thank you so much, hang in there with me while i try to figure this web site out, lots to hear, have a new reader program that doesnt miss a thing,,lol so i have to get it all worked out so i have some idea whats what. many thanks n big hugs
Deborah,
Good for you for wanting to express your own energy through the creative arts! Be proud of your creations as it sounds like a difficult endeavor for you with your handicap. Sometimes our abilities or 'dis'abilities add a unique quality to the art which is what makes it special and desirable.
Even experienced painters learn now skills at all levels of ability. It never hurts to learn more about our art and how to add new dimensions to it.
You sound like you have a nice support group around you and that's important! You will make new friends who will hopefully encourage you as well. Best wishes.
