No more sales/shows for the next year. I can't believe what a relief it is to have had this conversation with myself and actually come to this decision. This gives me a year to play and, hopefully, develop a body of work that I can draw on for exhibitions. I figured out the $$$, and it makes no sense for me to be participating in these smaller shows, when I barely cover expenses. I certainly don't make enough to pay myself any sort of wage, so I probably just end up making myself crazy for nothing. And since I don't make expenses, it isn't going to affect my basic budget to continue taking studio supplies out of household $$$s.
Today I bought some acrylic inks to play with. I want to experiment with them on various fabrics, including silk, as well as watercolour paper. I've heard that they don't bleed, even when diluted with water. This I've gotta see! I read about them in Quilting Arts magazine and talked to the staff at the local art supply store. Both gave me the same information.
