So -- the show I was frantically preparing for has come and gone, but meanwhile it seems like everyone and their dog has a show this month! In the span of about a week I've attended three receptions! Even the show I was in had its reception earlier this month. What is this, June for weddings and April for art shows?
Anyway -- I ended up primarily hanging drawings at our Emerging Artists show. It was a serendipity that allowed a friend of mine to end up posing -- fully clothed! -- in our figure drawing class, and she was an awesome model. I don't think there was anyone that day who didn't come away with good drawings of her. Paintings take me far, far too long, and I'd rather take the time to consider how I REALLY want things to look and work on my skills besides. I will say this, though -- it was hard for my drawings to compete with the paintings that the other artists hung. Bigger doesn't always mean better, but it sure as hell helps.
