Today was a bit more "normal". I took the new painting and the percentage check to the Civic Center first thing, and then headed for the Gallery. We had some folks come in, a couple of students and some tourist lookers. It's SO terrific to be in an area where people just drop in to look around. They've been at the Choo Choo, and have the gallery map in hand - even in this cold weather, just looking. This is what we've hoped for.
I got a call this afternoon from the art editor at the newspaper to set up the information questions for the article about my show, and set a time to meet the photographer at the Gallery to take the photo for the paper. The editor has been a terrific help - covering the Gallery and the various artists. Recognition and awareness is what it takes, and this publicity can't be beat.
Allan's been busy helping his clients, meeting with contacts here - hoping to get and keep the connections to help him when he gets ready to move back to Chattanooga. It can't come soon enough to suit us.
Today's photo is a leafy sea dragon who lives in the Sea Horse exhibit at the Tennessee Aquarium.
