Thinking about 2011 - what's next?

For most 2D artists the art fair season is quite slowed down, while the 3D folks have a better crack at the holiday shoppers. Most of you are reflecting back on this year's shows and making decisions about your 2011 shows. Can you answer these questions:
  1. Is the art fair business quite changed from ten years ago?
  2. Have 2009's economic woes affected your business?
  3. What adjustments are you thinking about for 2011?
  4. Tell us where you found your best shows: East Coast, West Coast, Midwest, Florida, South, Southwest. Are there differences in buying at art fairs in different regions?
