Display my photos in a public place

A month or so ago I was asked if I’d be interested in showing some of my photos at an Earth Day art show. I said yes – excited, inspired, and fully intent on buckling down and getting a handful of things nicely matted and framed (and then finishing a cute little photo-book I could bring with me as well). Unfortunately this didn’t happen, and I’m genuinely pissed off at myself for not getting it together.

I’ve been beating myself up about it, then today I happened to run into a shockingly good deal on those 8.5 X 11 glass clip frames. Plain, yes, but I could still print up a handful of pictures and have something showable—they don’t need to be fancy, and it might be a good place to start. It would certainly be less personally discouraging than bailing.

I got a stack of them, so we’ll see, we’ll see. I was also thinking it would be easy to set up a laptop and photo-stocked flash drive for digital display.

After sharing some of my photos that I matted & framed (following my class) I’ve been asked to bring 5-10 to a Christmas art show / sale. The only problem is it’s in less than a month and I don’t think I have the time.

First of all, I think I’d have a terrible time choosing things I think are really good. I need to have a serious talk with my internal editor and tell her to stop being such a bitch. It isn’t all garbage.

I don’t know if I can do that and wrangle all the equipment required and pull it off on top of everything else.

It was SO nice getting the positive feedback & request though.

That’s the plan, anyhow. Once I figure out how to present them nicely, there’s already a place in place. (mild shudder)
