Taking My Prints For A Day Out.

I understand your frustrations, most of us at one time or another go through what you are experiencing. I really like your look, professional with the dark shirt. It will take time as you know to market your non generic images. I have been there, not wanting to work on the weekends or whenever you have off. I would suggest making time for exercise it's probably part of the problem, you do say you are "tired." Being physically energized makes a difference in how you feel physically and mentally. When you are tired you feel more negative and experience more hopelessness. I feel that way towards the end of the day (I'm a morning person) or when I am tired the next day after having worked through the night. I envy your boldness to get out on the street and sell! There are many people stuffed away in offices who would love to trade places with you but are not willing to take the bold steps needed.

Suzanne,
What I meant is that in my job (that has nothing to do with photography) O normally work on weekends. And when I don't is because I have being working late night on the day before. And for this reason it makes it very hard to me to be free and have energy to Sell my prints in the street market that happens on Saturdays.

I got the chance to be in the market next Saturday because I have one week holiday. So I will be free Saturday to install my stuff early morning and show my prints. :)
But I only can do it when I am on holidays.

it is a minuscule step after so long but is better than nothing.

I hope it goes well! =D

Go get them!

As far it doesn't rain I am happy. :)

I understood Marcio. Going to bed one or two nights without getting eight hours shouldn't make you feel wiped though. Have a fun day.

Yes, it's a start...it's something, Marcio. Hopefully, you will eventually have a better balance of time between work and showing/selling your art. I applaud you for getting out there and showing/selling your art! I wish you the best in your endeavors!

It is a beginning and from small acorns come huge trees. Best of luck...you really deserve it

Just be positive, dream and picture lots of sales something good will surely come out of it. Good luck!

Hey... It I actually sold 3 prints today. :)
Not bad for the first day.

It was only 2 buyers though. One of them bought 2 prints. :)

I really enjoyed it.
Many people came to look and talk and it was nice. :)

Here a link to a photo of my "stand".
Very simple because I don't have car and because I can't do it often. But works.

Good luck with the market exhibits. I hope you do well.

To me, that's a "real artist's" stand Marcio! Congratulations on the 3 sales, I'm sure that made your day.

Congratulations Marcio!

Thank you all.

Yes John, it really made my day.
It is the first time I sold more than 1 print in a day... or in a week. Or maybe in a month,

It was much better than I expected. :)

Congratulations on your success, Marcio, and I hope you'll be able to have a stand again. Like Abbie said, you deserve it; especially after all your dedication and devotion to your craft (which you have shared with us over the past few years). Way to go!

Thank you.
:)

Congratulations Marcio! I think our Asian artist friend here (his name escapes me at the moment) doesn't have a car either.

Thanks..
Maybe I can get some tips with him. :)

Awesome news that your prints started selling right away. Your work is absolutely beautiful, so much soul and depth of feeling. You capture what many can't. Good luck to great success in your new market place.
