LA and SD Art Shows

I haven't written on here in over 2 months! I have been super busy but that's no excuse.

So...Art show in LA on Oct 9th: There were a TON of people there, but mostly to see the band. To be honest the show kind of got out of my control and became a concert with art on the walls. From this I learned some good lessons: 1. Secure the location and the artists, then decide if you want a live band and 2. You really have to have music and a crowd that goes along with art.

Though it was a lot of work and was relatively expensive, I did sell several paintings and I came out a bit ahead. Either way, it was fun, a learning experience, and some good promotion.

Art show in San Diego, November 13th: This art show was a LOT of fun, there was a good amount of people, wine, a very relaxed setting, with a chill, acoustic band at the end. Overall the show was great. Unfortunately....I didn't sell any paintings. BUT, I did get some good promotion out of it and I learned several things that I can correct for the next one, including how to present my art better and how to be more interactive as an artist. I also learned that the next time I have an art show, I need to specifically delegate people to help me set up and break down, or I go crazy.

Overall, the shows were great promotion and great learning experiences.
