Some thoughts

I have been making some adjustments... As you can see I took down my etsy and zazzle badges. I still have a profile on each site but Etsy will now be for custom requests only, Zazzle will be accessed by a link on my website. I want to focus more on making art and keeping the value of my work unique. I don't want to mass produce it, or get into advertising it....... I just want to draw and blog..... I want to take part in specialized events and meet people who like my art, I want to take part in solo and group shows rather than open calls for art...because I have seen that open shows lack the quality and "theme" that I would like........ I got a player from a show I was in and on the flyer was a drawing that looked like a character from beevus and buthead and I said to myself... "Ok this is not what I am wanting...this is just participation for participation sake..... no value, no filtering, no expectations.... No more.." More group shows are curated, so I need to look at artists like me-where do they exhibit? -Then I need to send THOSE galleries my postcard mailers and emails. Then they will know who I am..... In the mean time, I have to go and draw more and post more.....
