The Show is Over

The opening that now seems so long ago was well attended by friends and patrons all of whom had something other than buying art on their mind but, were full of encouraging words. Things got worse from there. I'm sure that hanging this show was directly responsible for a number of bank failures, most notably WaMu. Anne assured me that it wasn't the art or the prices which, were ridiculously low but, that the mood in general this year has not been about art. Gee, I wonder why?
Oh well, I press ahead as if making art is the only thing that will correct climate change, fix the economy, elect Obama and instill moral fiber into the hearts and minds of Wall St. ana. My next showing will be in La Conner in November at the Arts Alive weekend. My guess is that they will rename the show, "Arts Dead" after this year. Actually, that sounds like a good name for a theme show. I'm sure I can find a number of artists who could make art that fit that theme.
