Promoting

I would really like to start supplying shops and galleries 
Wholesale would be perfect ~ where stock is bought up front, 
rather than sale or return ~ which is where you stock the shop for free but they take a commission with each sale ~ down side is sometimes your pieces can sit gathering dust.

Locally now I have my work in a beautiful little gallery and coffee shop in Probus,
a small village on the way to Truro.
I like it in there ~ it felt homely and suited my work perfectly
{and the owner is a sweetheart}

I also had visited with another lovely gallery in Polkerris
filled with sea inspired pieces of art ~ I could have bought half the stock in there for my house!!
Luckily the manager loved my work and I am busy creating some pieces exclusively for there.
Its a new gallery so I can't give you a link yet but maybe when I get some work in there I can update you all.

So thinking along the lines of seeing galleries I like and maybe would like to have my work shown there~ 
I purchased a little book of my work ~ easy to carry in my bag on the off chance...




I'm really pleased with the finish 
BUT 
as my work is ever evolving I can see me having a bookcase full ;)

  4. What a great idea! I wonder how you did that, did you lay out the book yourself or go through a company online? I would love to have such a nice "portfolio" :) And make a new one every year, have a treasury of what I've made....lovely!
