4. What would you describe as art and not-art?

Art is the expression of individual creativity.A true work of art is unique. Art is what moves us to have intense feelings, whether joyful or sad, happy or angry. It has the ability to move the soul and make us question ourselves.  Anything mass produced does not do this.

5. Who would your ideal collector be?

My ideal collector would have unlimited funds and giant wall spaces.

Salthouse Gallert St. Ives

Just arrived back from St. Ives last night. I'd like to thank Geri for her hospitality, and the two local artists Shelly Tregoning and Jules Greaves, who's show Bound Boxed Withheld was on at the Salthouse when I visited, for their gracious advice and insights about advertising a show. I used their knowledge to distribute all the posters and leaflets, paying attention to the areas they advised I entice most. I have all the information on all the other galleries, if anyone wishes to send them a catalogue then you can contact me by email and I'll forward that information to you.
