Day 75 . 06 .07.2011

Hey ya’ll...

I called Exposure gallery today, to confirm how the selection process for the collaborative exhibition, that I submitted images for works, which is at the gallery later on this month. I was told that I will be receiving information on the results later on this week or early next week. Crossing fingers!

I spoke to my team about their business cards and how each of them needs to supply me with a few for the opening. It’s very important that my guests know and acknowledge my team members, and what better way to do so than promoting them in front of potential clients.

I am currently on the hunt for someone who is gifted in cinematography. I believe it’s important to shoot a small documentary for those who won’t be able to make the opening of the exhibition, and for those who are keen to see how I deal with the final week leading to the big day. I imagine it to be a combination of art, life, and hip hop. Perhaps I am the biggest Brown Sugar (my favourite movie) fan, or I have something that could really make it something bigger than what it is.

Day 8 . 30.04.2011

Happy Saturday

Good news. I have a theme. It just came to me at the oddest time. I guess there is no specific time for a brainwave. I don’t think I should reveal it just yet. Infact I won’t. It’s way too early to be revealing such. I feel good again; I am on the right track. Things feel slow, but I know it should feel slow because I am only on day 8. Gemini’s are known for not being patient; therefore I have to constantly remind myself that despite the date, this is not a race. I am not competing with anyone and that I can relax.

There has been progress today. I called Robert Miller about printing and he said that he would forward me a price list. He focuses more on custom designed sizes for his clients, and so he would prefer that I call him when I am ready to print and then we can speak about prices then.

I know I will be paying a lot for these prints, because the size’s I am thinking of vary from A2 to sizes bigger than A0 (that’s a really big size). A collection of different sizes will result in varied prices which is what is needed for my market. I don’t know of many ‘young’ people who invest in art, so I am hoping after this exhibition that will all change.

Exposure gallery (in Woodstock at the Old Biscuit Mill)  is sending me a copy of their printing sizes and price’s later on today, so hopefully I can compare the two in time, and see which option works best for my pocket and my investor’s pocket.
