I have a photo in a show in Kansas... the opening is Friday...would like to be there but I have to guard the homestead from the cretins in our town who may want to egg the house. And, of course, I couldn't get to Wichita and teach... And a photo in a small show in L.A.. This makes me feel good.
I am trying to get my work out there more and more and it is a whole other job. The seeking out calls for art, preparing the work, sending the applications - it takes a lot out of me...
And my sister and I opened an Etsy shop and really want to get that off the ground...but being as we both teach, doing everything we should do to promote the shop is just not happening... At least I used the summer to make the stuff - 100+ pins, many many photos - so all I have to do is photograph them and list them.
However, glad to be going to DC in a week. I know people think I should go to the NJEA convention, but the Art workshops there are not as good as what I get from the exhibits I go to in DC. And museums offer lesson plans and materials for teachers! I also received two free passes for the Corcoran gallery. It costs me a heck of a lot more money - unreimbursed - than going to AC, but I get things I can actually use in class. And it's my second home...
Today is club photo day...I am fed up with yearbook...but mot my staff...they are super...
