8/27: New Paint
This past week, the exterior of our gallery has undergone a transformation. Painters arrived and scraped away what was left of the old paint and replaced it with a fresh coat. What a transformation; I'll be able to replace the wintry night-time photo on the website's welcome page.
Aside from that, it's business as usual here: lots of traffic through the gallery, the last big hurrah before the season crests and we go into the slightly more subdued autumn season. Every single day people ask me how business is, and tell me they've heard other people say that it's slow, etc, etc. I've heard this every single summer, and I still don't really know what to make of it. I tell them things are fine, that we're still a fairly new business and our expectations are pehaps a bit more modest than those galleries who have been around for a long time. Of course, I guess I wouldn't say much anyway, whether we're getting rich or going broke. I'm happy for every sale we get, big or small.

Traffic has been such that I don't have much time while we're open to sit here and ponder all this stuff on my blog. And much of my non-open time needs to be devoted to getting art ready to ship. Kayaking has suffered, although this morning a couple friends and I went out at 6:30 to paddle out around Ram Island and walk around Hardwood. One of the friends was Bryan Gagner. Walking and paddling alongside him made me see all of these Bryan Gagner photographs just waiting to happen. A few clouds made the light a bit subdued though, so he'll have to go back on another day for his photographs.
