Juried Application?
It was suggested to me this evening, by an artist I tremendously respect, that I apply for membership in the McGuffey Art Center, which would involve a juried assessment of my artwork by all existing members of the Center.
OMG.
This idea makes me sparkle on the inside. I'm a glowy bulb of excitement and anxiety and what-ifs.
Is this my next challenge? I need one -- to spark my painting. What would my submitted collection look like? Would I get all the portraits back and show them? Would I make more portraits? Of maybe famous people? Recognizable people? Local celebrities? Would I play around with landscapes? Abstracts? Blossoms ala Blandino?
The next application round is in January. Too soon. But May is possible. What could I accomplish by May? What would I learn being part of an actual Art Society???!!!
OMG OMG OMG
This is going to keep me up tonight.
