I love to look at art, going to art fairs, and attending opening receptions but there is a political aspect to me that is entertaining, intimidating and frightening.

Succinctly put, creating art is not just about having a vision. Ask any working artist. It’s about how you can translate the ideas in your head into something tangible and then finding a  way to explain what it is to everyone else.  And then to find a way to make it sell.

Art isn’t easy so best of luck to all the artists hustling around town this weekend.

Here’s a section fromSoundheim’s  Sunday in the Park with George  which gives an inside glimpse of at artist at his own reception.
