O.K., now I have finally become a full-fledged exhibitionist. I'm having 8 (16 X 20) acrylic-on-canvas paintings shown in a small local gallery. I pay a small monthly rent and give them a small commission on each sale. I don't expect to sell anything, but I do want to make room at home and in my studio for future works. My next effort will be to hang some larger paintings in a very popular book store, lots of traffic there, and no rental fee, but a higher commission. That will be a thrill.

Wow, it's almost a year later, and I'm finally putting up the paintings in that popular bookstore--the day after tomorrw. There will be a reception on June 13 at night (with refreshments, imagine that!). I think I've overpriced most of the paintingts (about 13 altogether), but if they don't sell I don't care. I just want people to see and comment on them. What an ego trip; and I claim to be a buddhist. Laughing

ah, JL. the id; the ego; and the super ego: I do believe there's a cathexsis somewhere in there. Put a ridiculous price on each one and then dilettantes will die for them.

In other words, Wonderful!

Wow, I'm so glad this thread turned up again because I missed it the first time. Great to see your work. I think I liked the bull's skull the best but all of them are very impressive.

Good luck, JLN, & have fun at the opening!

I agree with Miss Letty, just wonderful JLN!
Your color scheme is so vibrant and positive and bold.

You are very talented, so don't sell yourself short. Wink
