I DROVE WITH MY PAINTINGS AND MY EASELS TO DOWNTOWN OCALA LAST NIGHT.
THE MANAGER WAS QUITE CASUAL ABOUT WHERE I WAS TO SET UP. AS I BEGAN , I REALIZED , THERE WAS LESS SPACE THAN I HAD ANTICIPATED .. AND I COULD ONLY PUT UP 6 PAINTINGS.. AT BEST .. I FELT LIKE I WAS A HAZARD... I BECAME AS NERVOUS AS A LONG TAILCAT IN A ROOM FULL OF ROCKERS. I SO WANTED TO SHOW MY REALLY BIG PAINTINGS..I SPENT MONEY ON NEW EASEL SYSTEM..
FOR THE FRIENDS WHO DID COME.. I WAS DISAPPOINTED FOR THEM.. THEY DROVE QUITE A DISTANCE AT NIGHT.. AND HAD TO ALSO CONTEND WITH ANOTHER RANTING FROM ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE OCALA POLITICS.
I AM QUITE DISCOURAGED.
BUT EVER SO THANKFUL FOR THE FRIENDS WHO BRAVED THE NIGHT TO COME.
THERE WAS AN OPENING FOR A GALLERY IN BELLVIEW THAT TOOK A
NUMBER OF PEOPLE AWAY.. AND THE PLAY HERE AT OTOW.
I AM REALLY GLAD NOT MORE PEOPLE TRAVELED TO SEE MY LITTLE SHOW.. IN THAT I COULD ONLY SHOW SUCH A SMALL NUMBER OF PAINTINGS..
