a fairly* lucrative year, so far

*meaning, not really, but better than normal.

thank you to everyone who went to see my show at the mudroom, and thank you especially to those of you who bought some of it. i displayed 8 images, and 5 from the show sold as well as a couple independent of the show. i really appreciate your support, now my phone won't get shut off. maybe by next month i can buy a pretty new spring dress!

in other news, a few months back i registered for your gallery, which is an extension of the saatchi gallery in london, england, for artists all over the world to upload their portfolios. as you can see from the homepage for saatchi, that site gets about 10 million hits a DAY. which means that your gallery artists get a ton of exposure. anyway, from my portfolio on your gallery i've managed to sell some work to the creative director of the saatchi, which is pretty unfathomable! as well they have started a new feature called showdown, in which viewers to the site rate each artwork and then the top 2 go head-to-head in a final showdown. long story short - the winner wins money and prestige and is basically an art star. when my round comes up (should be in a few days) you should vote for me. i'll be sure to post the link.

this is the photo i have in showdown right now:
