Well, this week end was the last edition of the stephen green art fair. So i have tried to be more successfull than the august edition.
First day : I wanted to exhibit my brand new framed pictures, oil paintings. and my framed fishes as well. Well, no real success as people just walk, look and walk away. What went wrong was the fact that two different styles showned is not really efficient to catch up the attention. People were asking me f i was the artist who did all these.
Second day :Â Saturday is busy with adults going shopping, so i decide to exhibit the oil instead of the fish and focus on one style only.So people did stop and watch the paintings, butthe few sales i saw that daywere watercolor of pear and apple.Neighboors told me that this year was really not a good year for this kind of event. Well, my oil will go back to northside and will have more success over there.Sunday was a dedicated for fish then… but stillhad to find a very good catch up.
Last day :Sunday morning is not a time to show anything in Dublin (pubs are closed, everyone is at the mass), so i came in the afternoon with a good idea for the day : showing the big fresco. SO i came around two and put my fresco at the dead end of stephen green (i was using 4 pitches instead of my 2 allowed). I had many many succes while putting up the pictures. I wish i had this idea sooner… So peoples were stopping, specially thoses with childrens. Unfortunately, i did no sales (like everyone that day), but i had a very good succes. I now know what to show for the next one. (no picture that day, i forgot my camera).
