U is for underwater

"Artists don't get down to work until the pain of working is exceeded by the paint of not working." Stephen DeStaebler
(There is a great article on this at: http://k-cartwright.blogspot.com/)

I seem to have been doing everything but painting. Todays list: sew a blouse, apply for next year's shows at nearby galleries, deliver paintings for viewing at a resort, negotiate to be carried in a nearby gallery. It is not the painting that eats up the time and the miles, it's the marketing! Wish me luck.

Stage Goats

I saw this team at the Draft Horse and Mule show in Sandpoint Idaho. I think they are terrific!

I'm struggling with finding show and galleries to show my work, deciphering submission forms, collecting marketing information and attending little government get togethers to promote the arts. There is so much more to art than just making the artwork. Does anyone have any stories they care to share regarding this topic?
