My first art show!

Pretty stoked about this one. It’s free and booze will be available so, if you live around here, COME ON DOWN! Most of my work will be new stuff that nobody has seen.
It’s been a lot of work, though… much more than I anticipated. I’m hoping to bring something a little different to the gallery.
It certainly hasn’t been cheap. I refuse to go the gallery frame route. Not that there is anything wrong with that, I just think I’ll add some spice to the mix.
So, for anyone else planning something like this I’ll outline my costs so far:
7 frames from the net: $850
Glass for 5 of those and backboard for 2: $140
2 Frames from local source: $70
Matting: $100
Matting kit: $100
Prints: $300
Wow. Gotta try to stimulate that economy.
I could have done this much cheaper, but I felt that I’d be short changing myself if I didn’t pursue the vision I had.
