So, Anyway way back in October i sent the whole 5 panel set off to Albany with a group of work from SUNY Oswego for the All SUNY Art exhibition. And... Until last week i heard nothing about it, no one from Oswego new where any of it was. So finally i go up to the head of the department, in person to get everything sorted out.
So about three weeks ago i was told that the exibit had been up since Dec 10th. And that it was being taken down Jan 29th. Well i was told this the week of Jan 29th. Wow. Nice job SUNY network on getting the info passed along to any of the artists. NO ONE knew anything here at Oswego.
Being that Jan 29th a representative from Oswego would be heading out to Albany to pick up any/all work that did not make it into the Best of SUNY Exhibition which is the next step up after the first show, i decided to not go out there but to save gas and wait and see what came back.
Today, i walked into my studio to find a poster on my door. A poster advertising the Best of Exhibition. My prints are one of ten images on that poster.
After receiving congratulations and confirmation that indeed i did get through to the Best of SUNY show, i also found out that i was the only student from Oswego who's work made it in the show.
Yes i'm excited. Hopefully i'll be notified when the reception is so i can actually go this time. I'm psyched. I'm about ready to stuff my car full of excited art student friends and head out to Albany to see what we can find out.
This is my first major art show. Wow. Simply Wow.

I couldn't be more excited for you but, I'm not surprised. I knew one day your work would receive the exposure it deserves. This in only the beginning!

That's great. I knew you were really worried about where your pieces ended up. Congratulations.
