Thanks for the articles. It takes time to move from the different stages. I have been doing pop ups over the past year mostly in vacant storefront. During this process, I managed to find a storefront that the landlord is happy to rent to me at a considerable discount for year one. I am now moving to a storefront next month. It’s a big move. I am taken it one step at the time.

Thanks again for your blog.

The idea of a solo show is something that needs to happen with me now. It seems such a daunting task. Am open to just about any venue for this and I am looking into doing a full blown solo show from my studio in Dingmans Ferry, PA perhaps during art walk.

Good suggestion given by Alyson Stanfield, I am a big fan of yours always. Its true that solo shows are the pinnacle of the artist career but lot of hard work is needed for this like an artist should have good contacts of people who love art otherwise solo show will totally be a solo show between you and your paintings J.

Hi Alyson!
I have been selected for a solo show at Studio Place Arts in Barre, VT in June. The show is called “Family Values.” I am using family photos & creating Solarplate etchings and creating vignettes like “Company Man” and “The Swedish Baker.” Glad to have the info you have share about how to plan it! Thanks!

AND…I received an email 2 weeks after the event from someone who wanted to buy a piece but didn’t get back to the show before it was over, so I’ll be taking the pieces over to her house for a personal showing. I’m looking forward to that because I’ll get to talk about the stories behind the pieces and series more.

In reply to Andrea.

Andrea: The answer will differ for everyone, but do look at the category “venues” in the sidebar here. I would also encourage you to reach out to individuals in personal emails and phone calls. Too many artists rely on bulk messages that are cold.
