With well over 50 submissions sent.................

Well over 50 submissions have been sent out and the most common response so far has been "We love your work but it is not the right fit with our gallery at this time."  Everyone that has returned a SASE has been quite kind and one even encouraged me to keep sending out submissions because he thought my presentation was excellent.

With this said,  it does not bother me.  I know I will find the right fits and only about 20% have been returned.  The real scary thing is that what if I got more galleries wanting my work then I can handle.  Is that not a silly thing to think about.  I have been neglecting my work since I have been focused on submissions and scouting locations for my "Crucifixion" exhibit.  It always makes me a little on edge if I don't produce new stuff.  I have been re-finishing pieces that were neglected while at various locations.  From that experience I won't be hanging in locations that all it seems about is covering there walls.  I am to the point that it needs to be in front of collectors since that is how I view my work,  collectable.

I feel different when I create.  More real.
