I feel like a real artist!

  • Mood: Artistic
  • Listening to: iTunes shuffle of DOOM!
  • Reading: school newspaper
  • Watching: Kim Possible
Omg. OMG OMG OMG OMG.

Okay, so end of finals last semester, I submitted a pair of pieces for an upcoming art show. It had pieces from undergrads, grads and professors, up to two each. All displayed anonymously.

They've been up a couple of weeks and tonight was the reception. Tonight all the works were for sale for $20, first come first serve. After a piece was sold the artist, title and media would be displayed in its place.

I had two pieces in.

My ceramic puppet ( [link] ) sold first, but it was swiftly followed by my print set ( [link] [link] [link] [link] ) which was mounted together into a whole.

I walked in near the end and everyone was all CONGRATS and I was (and am still!) SOOOOOO HAPPY!

So yeah, totally feel like a real artist now. =D

That is amazing! Not only did you get recognition but people actually spent money! That is always a very very good sign. You have every right to be excited. I am very excited for you too! x3
