I've had a mixed month artistically, but it seems to be ending on a high, which is good. I got news on Friday that I got accepted on to the Fine Art HND course I want to do - that starts on the 10th Sept, so I'm very excited about that. It's part-time, so I'll be able to continue working for myself as well. Saturday just gone, I attended a craft fair in my local town and did well at it. I also got to talk to a lot of community group organisers, and I hope some facilitation work will come of that. I'm very interested in working basic Human Rights awareness into Arts and Crafts classes, and there were a few people interested in that too, which is positive.
Meanwhile, I set up a Facebook 'page', to help promote my work. That's the weirdest part of working for myself as an Artist, actually, the self-promotion, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. So if you have facebook, please feel free to take a look! (and obviously, becoming a 'fan' would make me very happy!)
Lastly, my Official Website should be up and running soon. As part of the training programme I've recently completed, on running a small business, the students were offered a greatly discounted professional website & logo; so nothing to lose, I made use of the opportunity. It's http://www.c-arts.co.uk/ and should be live somewhere this week.
So a good end to a summer where it has rained an awful lot! (and it is still raining...)
