This didn’t just happen.
As a new artist, as a new Professional artist (I’ve always been an artist!), I’ve had to learn the industry using my own curriculum and lesson plans! (a teacher at heart! lol)
I started with a business model that has evolved to be so much more ~ because of the decisions I’ve made, and the opportunities and support from my art community.
Thank You!
To My Community!
Friends on social media, local galleries and shops, family and friends, even my photographer, seamstress, and framer…. you have all nourished my journey with intention. I appreciate you so much!
Where does the Hug part come in?
I’m exhibiting my art, coming out of the gate in 2024, on all sides of my State! It’s like the biggest hug ~ my art is on our western border, our eastern border, and in 3 different States. I am surrounded by love, and I am surrounding with love.
Remember… what my intention for this year is… Bring my art out where it will bless others.
I’m not piling my art up in the studio anymore ~ it has a job to do in this world ~ to share a love that can only exist in its giving to others.
it depends on me to help make that happen. This is my approach as an intuitive artist. This is my approach to pursuing art as a career.
I’m here to make an income, yes, but I’ve chosen a path that shares the rewards with others ~ and this is what blows my mind. I’m really just totally amazed at how my chosen path continues to be so much more than I could have imagined.
When I make decisions about where I’m going to focus my energy, I make sure that I add value at every turn. For instance….
Examples of How My Art & Actions Add Value
Community At Large
Library Arts Center
Sharing my art in an exhibit where all talents & age are welcomed to exhibit at no charge. And I share my proceeds from the sale with this vibrant and active art community.
Community Local
SEH Studios Art Gallery
A fellow artist opened a new location for her studio and gallery that provides more art and opportunity for the Dover NH area, my neighborhood. I share my art in exhibitions here and share proceeds to support this cause and person.
Industry
Professional Associations
I’ve affiliated with both large and small professional associations and select opportunities that share proceeds with community driven purpose.
Peers
Social Media
When I pursue ad campaigns and spend time promoting my business, I involve others so that they may also benefit from my effort. Collaboration is the fancy term. I created the NH Art Show Week account, and I organized a smaller marketing group. As well, I responded to open calls for art.
Awards, Affiliations, Exhibitions & Publications
Links to the exhibitions, and their exhibition dates can be found below, and on my page: Awards & Exhibitions.
I try to attend every opening reception. I’d love to see you at an event! It would support me, and the art communities!
When art is offered in a show, it is no longer available through me, but I am happy to assist facilitation ~ reach out to me with questions any time!
Where will I be? I’m available to meet you at any convenient time or place, but for these shows, I will be:
Fri 4/12 5pm, Kittery Art Association, Kittery ME
Sat 4/13 4pm, SEH Studios, Dover NH
Fri 4/19 5pm, Library Arts Center, Newport NH
I was unable to attend the Newburyport Art reception due to a storm power outage, but I am happy to meet you there to view the exhibit!
