| Registration for Xanadu Gallery's "Starving" to Succussful Workshop closing this week - Don't miss this opportunity to sharpen your marketing skills and get your art into galleries. Comments from past attendees to the seminar Hi Jason Went to Jackson Hole with my new portfolio (based on your class) and approached 3 galleries the way we practiced. The first one the owner was out and they were friendly, took my portfolio. The second one, the owner was very interested even wanted to see my samples and said she reevaluates her inventory every November and takes on new art at that time and was very interested. I went into a third gallery and she took my work on the spot including the sample raku hawk I had with me. SoYeah! Thanks for the great seminar. Tammy Bality - Longmont, CO www.spottedponystudio.com "I just came back from doing a one day invitational art show in Baja Mexico. It was a great success with 4 large pieces sold. The best part is 2 of the pieces were purchased by a gallery buyer from Lake Tahoe (Truckee) for a gallery there . . . She also picked out several more large pieces, which she said she will purchase when she returns to Lake Tahoe, and wanted to see more of my work . . . Anyway, just thought I'd let you know. Never would have made these moves, or understood them without your seminar. " Dan McGeorge - San Diego, CA website I would highly recommend the seminar. It was very well planned and executed. The pre-seminar 'assignment' was very beneficial. It gives us each a chance to talk about where we are at, show samples of our work, and share our goals. I know the packet I sent was reviewed and Jason had a feel for where I was at before meeting him in person. He had a feel for my painting style and had visited my website. I brought my portfolio along and had one on one time to hear his thoughts on my website and portfolio. At the seminar I was very impressed by the organization of their presentation. It was much appreciated to have a ring bound booklet that covered (page by page) all the pertinent information so you weren't scrambling to write everything down and could just really listen. There also was a space on the page for notes or questions. A great handbook to refer to once you are back in the studio. I can't say enough about how helpful and genuine . . .Jason was in sharing his experience in the art market. You felt very comfortable asking any question and that it goes beyond the seminar day as Jason invited us to email with any further questions that came up which we forgot to address that day. I have stopped by the gallery and ran some pricing questions past Jason and he was very helpful. The seminar really gets you to look at all aspects of professional artist's marketing needs and how to prioritize getting it all accomplished. I wish you well on your artistic journey. This seminar gave me a burst of energy to accomplish my goals. A fellow working artist with high hopes for the future! KiKi Sweeney - Scottsdale, AZ |
