Passion, People & This Place


Well it is week two of the exhibition, it's been slow and steady and I really love the break from my day job. The main difference is making a connection to people I have never met before, but the similarities are that I can spend hours on the computer searching for information and networking in the Ethernet and in person. The art world is not for the timid that's for sure .Good thing I am passionate about the art, the artists and the business or else I would not have survived for 5 years . Five years is a long time to stay in the same location for an art gallery, and as each year goes by I accomplish more and take in greater amounts of information about the business , but I have to say really helps to have a partner who has been in the business for 30 years to guide you along the way. The other key to my survival is presenting events and projects on my terms, with whom I want, when I want. As the foundation grows I will be able to afford one or two employees, but for now I am really a one woman show with a family and friends that support me. They are down with programme of living out your dreams. I am fortunate to have this place , the passion, the people all I need now is the money and I know that will come.
