Recent events reminded me that it is always good to maintain an open mind of where one can display their artwork.   Using traditional galleries is great, but other venues besides regular galleries can also prove to be a good fit for one’s work as well.  I recently had the opportunity to hang a collection of my work at Laura’s Day Spa).  The atmosphere at Laura’s is such a good fit for my work! Both parties maintain a philosophy of soothing and uplifting their clientele.

If you are local, I would highly recommend a visit to Laura’s to pamper yourself.  Laura and her staff are so warm and welcoming, I am sure you would enjoy them pampering you.  I am so guilty myself of not always taking personal pampering time! You can visit her at www.laurasdayspa.ca

As a result of this recent opportunity, I was once again reminded of the fact that it is a good idea to have a body of work ready that could be displayed  in short notice! It prompted me to be on my toes and update all my work as soon as it is completed.  Ex. Recording it in your inventory, getting a good digital, info on the back of the painting, framing etc. You just never know what opportunities are just around the corner!
