Making prints
http://bigglassbeads.blogspot.com/
Art sells but only if your really good or your prices are low enough. I was at an art walk last week and some art critics came up and told me I was giving my art away at the low prices of 150 and 200 each.I priced it so that at least I was making around 30 dollars profit. Why not get rid of it at a lower price at least it goes and then I dont have to drag it all back home again. The truth was even at the lowest prices conceivable people didnt want any of it. Would it have sold if the prices were 25.00 and 30.00 each.? Its a risk Im willing to take on some of the art I beleive is nice enough. So Iv called 2 printers and they are about as dumb as a bag of hammers on the phone they cant give me prices and they act as if they never made a print for any one in there lives. So Im going to Wal Mart Photo shop, going to run me off about 10 of each of the paintings I like, frame them in matt and see what happens.If any one has any better suggestions out there message me.Id like an honnest ansure. The question for the day is ( * is a photo concidered a print*)

Art Walk and bad weather
http://bigglassbeads.blogspot.com/
Art walk this weekend,the truck is all packed up with my art layered with towels and pillows, so none of it gets scratched.My tent easels and display stands. What do you do if they call for rain the whole weekend.? Do you go, and risk the chance of ruining the art that took you months at a time to paint or do you stay home.? As I look out side its lightening and thundering. I so love art walk and out door venues.Would you leave your home into the rain knowing you will probably get wet because you understand how much work goes into setting up tents and dragging all your shit out side, or would you stay home watching a good movie or a sports event.? I have to go, as a vendore and the money invested non returnable, many people that put this together are counting on all of us to show up. So that means you guys in your nice coasy houses get out side and bring an umbrella, at least you can go back home after an hour or so. We have to stay a full 10 hours or more. SO this is to thank all the Persons out there for showing up. Thanks everyone. It means more than words can say.

New York City, Time Square
http://bigglassbeads.blogspot.com/
Holidays for a week to the big apple Iv never been there before. I'm looking forward to the museums, galleries and live shows.Will take lots of pictures, and climb the statue of liberty, if that's at all possible, we will see. IM going to look like such a tourist but better a tourist than a terrorist.. they should all be rounded up and shot, and not with a camera.. Sorry but people like that don't make this world a better place.Whats even worse is they feel uncountable for there actions.
Be back in a week..
