Before I start writing out long essays about the loss of our store, the state of our business now, and our continuing artwork, and whatever else pops into my head I want to post some photos of the work we've been doing. I will be posting new photos often, and Markel will be writing from time to time also.
We have supported ourselves this last year, since closing our store in November of 2005, by supplying 3 galleries with our work, Dennison-Moran gallery in Naples, Florida and two Island Style Galleries, one on Sanibel Island, Florida and the other in Key West. Garden Argosy, in Sarasota also has our new work.
The new design-line work is in those galleries for sale. Our paintings and sculpture are in the early development stage and indeed some of the paintings of mine, shown here, are still in progress. Our plan is to create a show's worth. We are starting to look for gallery representation right now of a different kind then the gift galleries that show our standing, design-line sculpture.
It's been a very heart-wrenching year, a humbling, ego-crushing year, but we are enjoying a much more reflective, slower-paced life, much more conducive to creating more contemplative and ambitious artworks, and we are finally adjusting to being artist's and not store owners, which seems now to be a blessing in disguise. We are very fortunate to be able to get up and make art everyday.
enjoy the photos......
