First Steps, First Gallery Submissions

First Steps, First Gallery Submissions

Imposter syndrome is a hell of a beast, isn't it? 
When I first started out as an artist, I never would have assumed that I'd have the courage to participate in an art showing, or that I would ever make work worthy of being showcased amongst "professional" artists. Today, I said "You know what, no, I'm doing this!", took that big first step, and submitted these two pieces to the RemainReal "Small & Powerful" art show opening on May 5th.
I'll make a new blog post when I know how the opening night goes (I will be out of town that day, unfortunately), but until then, enjoy some work in progress images. I wish I'd thought to take more, but that's all part of the learning process.
Lady Bathory, after being cleaned and inserted into her frame.
Lady Bathory, first try with epoxy resin. Lots of lessons learned on this one.
Guilty Conscience getting her first round of blood drips.
Guilty Conscience, waiting for varnish to cure. She might be my favorite thing I've ever made.
