Hi all,
I got my tent yesterday. I ordered one from Dick Blick, with two sidewalls and the weight bags. We're going to set it up this weekend, hopefully it's as easy as the advertising says it is! It cost a little over $200. so well within my range.
I'm going to use "Jux" as my demo painting. Unfortunately, he is in Arizona so I will have to use a stand in and work on his jeans while I'm there. Hopefully, I won't be painting much. If I start another painting for the demo, I might not have it far enough along. It would be in the "ugly, scary" stage. Maybe that would be okay as long as I have finished works there to compare to. What do you think? It may be very confusing to people to look at a demo painting with a stand in model,("Jux" with my son standing in as the bluejeans model).
I still have to frame some of my work, and am getting very nervous about this whole thing. I talk to myself daily to calm myself down and when the anxiety level gets too high I walk in the woods or go find the horses. They bring me back down to earth and reality. I'm really not that important in the grand scheme of life.
