Opening night of local showing tonight! Eeek!

Well done... I too aspire to have my work hung and ogled at while sipping lattes

What everyone else said. That is very exciting! Just enjoy your time in the "limelight" and use it as inspiration to do more.

Congratulations on getting hung. Um, you know what I mean. I've enjoyed seeing your creativity - glad to see that you're sharing it with a wider community. :cheer:

Thanks you guys!! The opening was about 60 people who just wanted to buy a latte, 8 people who looked and chatted on their way to the coffee (4 of whom lifted and looked behind the pictures at the foam blocks I velcroed to the back to solve the wonky hanging problem ), 2 people who wanted to know what kind of camera I was using, 2 people who wanted to know who did my printing, and 8 people who thought I was an artistic genius (all related or married to me or friends).

My work stays up until March. All in all I'm super happy with the experience.

If you are thinking about it, you should totally check around in your area and go for it. If nothing else it is a great kick in the pants to make you print your stuff. I'll have a whole stairway's worth of pictures to hang at home after this.

I remember when squirrels was underground.

That sounds wonderful! I'm so happy it went well for you - I know how nervous you were. Many, many weeks until March, so you may end up with fewer left to hang in the stairway than you think!

Congrats on your achievement!
