Yesterday, I attended an opening for The Starting Out exhibit at New Visions Gallery in Marshfield, Wisconsin. Here, I submitted my watercolor illustration that I made over the summer. This was a juried exhibition which means there was a board that decided which pieces were to be displayed. I was exited to receive the email for it felt like I was given a break. However, it's a break so that means I need to get back to work afterwards and start cranking out more art. Hopefully I can submit more pieces to galleries such as this one and get noticed. The president from MIAD, Jeff Morin, spoke at this opening about how to work as an artist using the gallery as an example. He mentioned how he, himself, submitted art to galleries and how he never gave up no matter how many times his work was denied. Eventually his work made it into galleries which started a chain reaction of finding clients.

I don't know what will happen having my work on display. Even if it's for a short period of time, it only takes one look to make all the difference.
