Recently someone told me that to be considered for an exhibition an artist should have at least eight serious pieces/ projects. So this is my personal goal right now. I’m aiming to build up a strong portfolio of work that I don’t hate that will feature on my own website.
This prompted a small exchange of comments between us and Sophie Cullinan. EIGHT! “what an enormous number!” said I, “what a friendly number!” said Sophie… or similar…
I only have 3 and a bit I think…
(the phrase “that I don’t hate” is useful isn’t it?)
1. Sheds
2. Children/parents stuff
3. Sounds?
