Are there merits to being late? Why bother coming at all?

Time management is key and while we have a lot on our to do list, we need to consider our priorities. Remember, it is just as important to spend time with friends and family as it is to get things done.

I may be reposting this blog, but I think it is still relevant. I was once told by someone, "there is no point in investing in people, you will never see a return." I believe they are wrong and I have a lifetime of experience that proves it to me.

Art shows are a mystery and one of the biggest questions is attendance. Without visitors, there are no sales. No sales no artists and no artists mean no event

Whether you want to be an artist or travel the world abroad; make sure you are doing what meets your priorities. Just because you want to travel, doesn't mean you are wrong. It is right for you. Making art is right for me.

Don't let doing art isolate you, get out and meet people. You never know what you will discover.

Not all "Great Venues" are perfect for everyone. If they were, you would see crocheted salad forks at every show you did. Look at which displays that are getting traffic and think about how you might be different.

Excitement is for when the work is done and you no longer have anything to worry about.

Keeping your options open is fine but sometimes you can find yourself letting someone down that was really counting on you. You can burn some pretty serious bridges that way.

Consider where you hang your art and think about who you are. Sometimes it isn't about where it is but just what you do.
