It’s very timely as well since I’m in an exploratory stage right now and can certainly attest to the growth I’ve had staying in that space & going deeper even though I don’t know where I’ll end up. You’ve also inspired me to do more research on my current project of Spain works (based on the residency I did last fall). Thank you!

Comment on How curiosity and research deepen your studio practice (268) by Susan Purney Mark https://dy-online.com/curiosity-research/#comment-142633 Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:10:59 +0000 https://dy-online.com/?p=61034#comment-142633 Your post is very timely, Alyson. I am learning that when I spend time at the beginning of a new body of work doing the exploration, writing and research, my work becomes deeper and more meaningful. My recent art residency was about laying a foundation with mind maps and writing before any art making and my sketchbooks have become daily reflections of what has worked/not worked from the previous day, some ideas and plans for that present day and then, after that, sketches or sampling. I hadn’t thought that the planning stage would be so necessary to build a good foundation…thinking that I could just leap into the art making filled with good intentions…but then the work usually went sideways quickly.

Comment on How to attach labels to the wall by Hazel Emily https://dy-online.com/how-to-attach-labels-to-the-wall/#comment-142547 Mon, 04 May 2026 08:57:54 +0000 http://artbizsuccess.com/2007/10/how-to-attach-labels-to-the-wall.html#comment-142547 Christine DeCamp. Museum Wax is usually available online or in art/archival supply stores, sometimes also under names like “Quake Hold” or similar mounting wax products. It’s a good alternative when you want something more secure than Fun-tak without damaging surfaces. If you're also into decorating or displaying wall pieces, sometimes browsing curated prints can help style things nicely too, and a Collection Prints Coupon can make those options a bit more affordable when you're putting a look together.]]> In reply to Christine DeCamp.

Comment on What to include in an art exhibition proposal by Alyson Stanfield https://dy-online.com/exhibition-proposal/#comment-142502 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 14:19:09 +0000 http://artbizsuccess.com/?p=17956#comment-142502 Lora. Hi, Lora. I could have sworn I responded to this. (maybe you also emailed me??) Meredith's proposal as described in the podcast episode 262 was very simple. I would say it's more like a pitch that outlines how you would work together, why you chose them, etc. In fact, for a nonprofit, I would suggest more of a personal pitch email than an exhibition proposal (since they aren't doing the exhibiting).]]> In reply to Lora.

Meredith seemed to have a proposal for American Rivers first, not a gallery right away. I would love to know the meat and potatoes behind that original proposal.
