Okay, this is not new news, but it's news, just the same.  Thanks to a dear friend of mine, I now have work available for sale in a new boutique downtown (here in Atlanta).  I've just been too busy to spread the word beyond facebook and simply telling people!

Re-Inspiration Store is a great new spot on Huff Street downtown that offers recycled art from various materials and many different artists.  I have a small assortment of pieces there, and will add more new pieces soon.  On top of that, Re-Inspiration will host one of their featured artists presenting a project demo/class each month.  I'm preparing a project for the month of April (details will be announced soon), and am looking forward to some creative fun with whomever I can lure down there on a Tuesday night.

One of my goals for 2010 was to place more work in more boutiques and some new galleries.  Funny how shortly after I wrote that on my wishlist at the end of last year, the first one sorta fell into my lap... (hmmm - what else could I put on that list?)  Anyway, I had to truly commit to this, not because of lack of motivation (I don't STOP creating!), as some might believe, but because it is a prospect that requires me to put down the creative work to devote time to finding, connecting with, and initiating relationships with entities outside of my current scope (one of these days soon I'm going to get a rep to do that part for me - hey - think I'll put that on the list!).  It's not extremely difficult, but it does take time, which I'm constantly trying to stretch already!

So here it is, in black and white, for me and all the world to see - one of my commitments to myself and my work for the year.  More new outlets.  Definitely achievable.  But first, let me go finish some more pieces...
