Day Three and Four

Day four & five.............or is it two and eight? hump!

By the way, these are just some of the photos I have to show you, yes there's more!
Later.

One bright and sunny morning.
Above is Clive.
Another local lad.
Finding it all very interesting, came in on his way to the shops.
He especially liked the semi nudes.
"wish I'd brought me glasses" said Clive.

Below.
Victoria, Marcia & Claire
Victoria thought it was the most interesting exhibition she had seen this year!
Obviously an artist herself.
"I'll go home and have a think and maybe make a card to bring down"
I think collage was her thing, and I can't wait to see what she brings!
Next to Victoria is Gregory Thacker's work, fine detail in pen & ink.
________
Marcia on the left, an art student.
Came in as a result of seeing a poster I had put in a pub.
Ah....students and pubs, I remember it well!
Marcia had seen something similar at college where students bought a blank post card and decorated it, the results were auctioned off and the money used to fund another art project.
She like the collage, very tactile and the wooded display boxes.
Came back in and took some photos.
She asked if I collected many images for my collages, I didn't want to scare her but if she could see my spare bedroom!!
We chatted about the best magazines to buy for good collages and don't let on I told you but she's got this thing about trees..........enough said?
_______
Cheeky Claire, bottom right.
Only kidding Claire!
She came in to do a reccy as she's having an exhibition here at the Gallery in November, I think she said beginning the 14th
She's an artist printmaker.
May come back with her tape measure.

Sandra &Sabine
Two lovely ladies from Germany.
I explained the connection with baseball cards.
Sabine said "Much nicer than baseball cards!"
Spent a long time looking and politely asked if they could take photo's, to which I said yes.
"Can I buy one? Sandra asked.
I told her they were not for sale but that she could exchange with me or request one of mine from the exhibition and I gave her my email address and explained about ACEO's.
Watch out Sandra, they are addictive!

______________________

Below, Gina & Audrey
(Just visiting Bath.)
"Gosh! you really need to get in close!
We were just passing and thought this looked inviting.
So much detail, like modern miniatures, have you thought of framing them in a group?
they're are so interesting.
Are they business cards? They are good adverts for your work aren't they.
Do you hand them out to prospective clients?
________
Ah......so many question so little time!

Gina, Audery and Eric
Eric, a local chap
"Are you here for the week? I'd like to call back in and maybe bring something in.
I'll have to see if I can scale my work down"
Eric showed me a beautiful photo on his phone that he had done in acrylic of a skate boarder in beautiful bright colours.
He was truly intriqued and spent ages chatting and looking at the cards.
Funny, you can always spot a fellow artist!
He asked if they were for sale and I explained the difference between ATC's & ACEO 's
"I'll look them up on the net" said Eric.
I have a feeling I will see Eric again.
