Dansko Clogs Break In

Hook, unhook: it is always present ... An American in Paris

Entering a small shop and art gallery, find that the works are well developed, assess the available frameworks and neighborhood styles, guess it's a business sometimes terribly manual??
Let's not break the myth of course sell art requires a strong general knowledge on the subject, an instinct, aesthetics, personal stances on the various artistic movements, some small expertise in public, coasts artists and production techniques but says the importance of physical endurance?

Be as strong arms and steel nails to successfully win the current exhibition and hang the news 10 hours, the only day of closing ... The choice of starting on the layout of the shop have practical implications for handling as the 4 panels of 9 frames apart. Our resources and storage space does not allow us to keep all box, we must - every time - get out and "open" the 36 frames, drag the contents, protective pouch, remove the new pieces, put them under glass and hang up the whole. Large sizes also commute illustration boards and walls: use one hundred small manipulations in all. Especially the need to look great as the final selection for choice in formats and styles that we will try to coexist harmoniously because the best is yet to come ...

The great next to the boy? The posters above the stairs? The lithographs over the sofa? Once the tables ready, the great game of musical chairs, with transport of stool, the hammer, nails and hooks, a little balance to reach the walls, reconciliations failures, successful trials ... When all is almost satisfactory operation water level required to verify the alignments (it always looks!), A shot of gum on the walls (fingerprints top left), large leaching and like a little tired:)

In short, it changed everything yesterday! ( you click here to see the result )

What Does Skin Do On Gpsphone Ipod Touch?

January, dull plain ...

We knew we had been warned and we expected: between the aftermath of Christmas, white balance and month, the month of January was tough! Without discount (we do not balance the art!) And tablecloths Sophie Calle, we were not at the top of the list consumers already battered ... Suffice to say that turnover remained low, too low ... Visits, even disinterested, they were rare too, the entrepreneur has found many long hours in his little shop ...

End of sequence "lament and pity!

We must restart the machine and the beginning of February is an opportunity to bounce back with the first exhibition of "map" of an artist! After the thematic (Gilbert & George, Natural History) who organized themselves in some way, as we choose, it's a new exercise. Trade, selecting works and formats, highlighting, fastening: the adventure lives two, artist and gallery owner ...
