My paintings are a bit unusual and I shipped two to an art exhibit at the Hotel des Arts in San Francisco. The curator hung them and said that my work was *powerful in person*. He'd only seen photos of them! Sometimes you find people who appreciate what you do! That seems out of the usual. There are so many who don't understand for the single individual who does get it. So keep searching... Glad to know about smart, strong woman Hazel Dooney.

I don't really fit into the popular street art or skateboarder art scene in my local area so I am still struggling to find the community who understands my style. Though I am still searching, I am confident that there are folks out there who will "get it"! I think the key is to find people you relate to–or help them find you!

Especially now, when the world is changing so fast. I beat to my own drum. Sometimes it is hard to do, people or companies usually do not understand what I am trying to do until after I have done it and have moved on to the next thing.

I have been struggling to get my work into a co-op gallery for a little over a month and it seems as though they are more interested in playing games and dragging it out rather than actually telling me if they want my work or not. I was thinking about emailing them tonight with a decision to back out....this post just confirms my thinking. Maria, Thank you so much for this article.
