I’ve had quite an exciting month with Artomatic. I initially entered into AOM with the thought that it would be nice to hang a few pieces together and enjoy the experience of hanging a small show inside a show and maybe meet some like minded souls.
First a word about AOM – it has been great, yes I know I don’t like all the work there (and neither do you – that’s ok) but, I’ve been happy with a few artists I’ve not seen before. Organization wise AOM is near perfect. When I graduated from the Corcoran, there were 28 of us and we couldn’t do something in unison if we had to, with +/- 300 artists AOM is like a well oiled machine. So kudo’s to the management.
With a simple email and some cards at the space I’m in, I’ve been able to reconnect with a few friends I have not talked to in years – one from over 20 years ago, and if that wasn’t enough I’ve sold 2 of the 3 paintings. Yes, I’ve met a few people that seem pretty cool as well. I have one last AOM post coming – a simple slideshow of some things I liked. Expect that some time week after next.
