I dropped off my work Friday for the Emergence show at Chartreuse Muse in Modesto. There were some really cool pieces submitted by other local artists and I'm excited to see how they choose to display all of the pieces together.
It's also a bit unnerving. Will people like my work? Will someone like a piece enough to buy it? Did I price my art too high? Too low? How will I compare against the other artists? Will I be a one hit art show wonder? Prime material for my inner critic to work with. Thankfully I don't depend on selling my art to pay the bills so the situation is low risk. On the positive side, how many people are invited to participate in a gallery show!?! That's a pretty cool deal. I was thrilled to be asked to participate in the show, and will be over the moon if a piece sells so I can feed my art supply habit. At worst I will experience a slight blow to my ego, but nothing I can't eventually get over. If you're in the Modesto area, please visit Chartreuse Muse to support local emerging artists. For those of you too far away to make it to the show in person, you can be sure I'll post lots of updates and pictures over the next six weeks. Cheers, Adele
