I have motivation!
Back in January, I had gone to the Huntsville Public Library to see about showing my pinhole images there. They have a little area set aside for local artists to show their work. I talked with a woman and submitted an application, but hadn’t heard anything from them for more than two months. The woman I talked to called me last week to say that they are interested in displaying my work, and are wanting to do it in May! So, I had better get my butt in gear! I will be showing some of the work that I had in my exit show from UAH, but I also want to show some new stuff. I have a month.
And, to make things even better, I now have my own enlarger!
Home darkroom
I got my home darkroom set up. I live in an apartment, and my darkroom is my bathroom, so it is not the most comfortable of places, but it worked well enough. I cannot do any printing at home seeing as how I do not have an enlarger, but I can develop my negatives. Yes, those are my negatives hanging on a shoe string nailed into the wall over my bathtub. Hey, I am on a shoe-string budget. Haha….sorry.
Website is up!
Yay! My website is up! It is not completely finished yet. For one, I have a lot of images to place on it. I am also not sure if the design is finished yet. I think I still have some tweaking to do. I might even change it completely. But it is there!
Now starts my art career
I have graduated with a Bachelor in Studio Art. No more classes. No more people telling me what to do, or when to do it. No, I have to motivate myself. Do I want this? Yes. I have to keep telling myself this. Otherwise I will sit back and do nothing.
