So! To continue with my artsy Mondays I wanted to share some exciting news from my own life as an artist. I had my very first, professional gallery opening in the U.S last week! I should probably clarify that I had a small opening while I studied in Rome, but it was only for one night. So I'm counting this one as my first!
This is one of the paintings I'm showing!
"You Remind Me of Home"
It got that title because now it is a permanent fixture in my mom's living room. I was given specific instructions not to sell it :)
I was so thankful to have my friends and family come out to support me! And I was lucky enough to have Tori along to photograph the whole shindig.
Gallery openings tend to have crappy food. But lots of free wine!
That's my momma! Always my biggest fan
They even had me talk to a group of high
school students about my work, as if I know anything!
All in all the night was a big success! And I'm very excited to continue showing work in the future! Maybe some day I'll even sell something! But that's another story.
Have an inspired day!
Jen
