Globe studio show

I regret to inform all of you that I have decided to withdraw from the Globe Studios Art show this coming weekend. I realized that I did not have enough quality artwork for the show. I need to build up an inventory of work before I can participate in any other art shows. I am ashamed of my poor time management skills, but I felt it was better to be honest with myself, the Globe Studios, and to accept my failure. Submitting a few sub par pieces would not have been good.  My goal is to never have to back out of an art show again. 

I have been having a lot of trouble keeping commitments for the past year. My energy levels have just been so low. It is 2:05 pm and I am writing this post from my bed for goodness sakes. Not cool. I know what is causing the lack of energy, I am just not comfortable talking about it. What I can tell you is that the next step is to learn to cope with it. But for now, I need to deal with this privately and not dwell on it.

I am also thinking of raising the prices of my pieces. Although it feels amazing to sell so much art, I cannot keep up the supply to meet the demands. My current style of realism and detail takes much more time than my paintings ever did. On top of that, my expectations of myself have also grown.  I feel that my work is of better quality than it was before. So taking all of these factors into consideration, I must raise my prices. Prices on my older work will remain the same.
