Sharing your images “Connect”

December 2, 2016

While having fun with creativity and developing stationary and note cards is one way to share your images to connect – of course to connect – you have to send the letter or note card! Print your cards or send them electronically. Here’s a beautiful simple floral by photographer Sue Hershey.  This type of image makes a great foundation for a greeting by adding just a little text.

What are some things to consider when exhibiting your work?

  • The venue.
  • The fee.
  • Open show or juried.
  • The timing.
  • Number of pieces that can be shown.
  • Framing or presentation requirements.
  • Opportunity for sales and commission structure.
  • Keep track of the exhibit name, organization, date, venue, other exhibitors. (It’s much easier to do this when first starting out vs. going back and recreating your exhibit schedule!)
  • Have fun!

Check out exhibit opportunities via camera clubs, festivals, local art councils, airport venues. Here in Western North Carolina there’s a wonderful “Art in the Airport” program.  Pop up exhibits are popular too.  Collaborate with another photographer or artist and show your work.
