Hard decisions...


Just made a difficult decision, giving up my reserve spot at the Saturday Market. It's hard to let it go, after all those cold, miserable days at market to earn enough points to win a reserve space. And I love my neighbors, and my spot near terrific music and food.

But it feels right to open it up for some new market energy, I know when I didn't have a spot I wished some of those folks who only came to market the bare minimum to keep their reserved space would move on and open up spaces for artists who were producing work and having to set up in a different space every week! And then last year as my art underwent changes I became one of those people, setting up a minimum display and barely covering my fee and lunch costs.

So I let go, and it is out there and hopefully somebody feels very lucky to get it. It's a nice space, hope whoever is there finds it as positive as I did.

Meanwhile I am trying to find other ways to stay involved in and support Market other than selling, and I am trying to find the new directions my art will take.
