Another busy week, but not as bad as last week I finally feel like I am ready to open this weekend. So I will have to look on the last one as a dress rehearsal. I have also managed to get a few snaps of the snail room to post.
I have spoken to a few more of the artists taking part now and it seems that every one had a good day, some spoke of having hundreds through their studios. I didn’t have that many but I had enough. As for sales I feel a little disappointed I didnt sell much I will re look at my prices but I don’t think it will make too much difference..we’ll see. I always said it wasn’t about selling but it would be nice.
Mike and I are going to get a bit more organised with the children this week end too. He couldn’t keep them out all day last weekend and when they were around they bounced around people like excited puppies. I don’t think people mind but I found it very hard to talk and answer questions.
I am starting to wonder what’s next, this has been on the horizon for what seems like so long now and I wonder if I did more snails than I would have because of it. I definitely think I have done the theme. People are saying oh you’re the one who does the snails and I am not sure I like it. It’s so not everything I am about! The next festival is 4 years away, so now I have started again there has got to be something in-between. I have three canvases on the go one old fruit (mouldy pomegranate) and two earth angel pieces I will finish them, take stock and explore things in my sketch book. Maybe I will have more thoughts on this when it is all over next week.
