Schmoozing

During my group's reception for our 'Dissonance' show, I had the pleasure of meeting an art dealer named Gideon Swift. He is an assistant director for Martin Lawrence Galleries, who I assume he deals for, as well as the gallery director at Kevin Page 3D Gallery. He showed an interest in my work and I got to tell him a little bit about my process. He was really into the "80's vibe" that my work gave off, to which he said was spot on. He later asked if I had sold anything yet, at which point I had hoped he would purchase one of my pieces. I told him I hadn't but I have even more work that I could show him that was for sale, and so I got some of his contact info.

Other than that, working with Evita and Darius has been great. They were telling me about what they plan to do with their space, as well as other spaces nearby in which opportunities are present to show work. Evita told me about the Art Beef group and the Beefhaus space in Dallas, which were great to learn about.
