Friday Finds: A little R-E-S-P-E-C-T

R-E-S-P-E-C-T
One of my favorite blogs is Alyson B Stanfield's ArtBizBlog. Yesterday's post, "7ways to establish that your art has value," included this advice: "Don't ever belittle your art. Don't talk disparingly about what you have created. Don't point out the flaws. Don't reveal how easy it was to make." Now that's good advice. I don't know whether it's insecurity, false modesty or an attempt to lower expectations, but I hear such comments all the time. Let's vow now to respect our work. For more of Alyson Stanfield's tips go to

Gallery North on the Square
First Friday in Bloomington means good art and good eats in good galleries in downtown Bloomington. If you're going tonight, make sure you visit Gallery North and take in Rose McCay's exhibit of orb photography.
