I find what you've commented on a thoughtful process for my own work. So much to learn! Is it Ira Glass who says something about it taking volumes and volumes of work to get to where you want to be? I have been accepted and rejected from exhibits over the years. Not so much for tapestry, I'm new to that, but for other kinds of weaving. I think, as you say, it's important not to take it personally. Although it is an opportunity to take a look at one's work. Having the courage to show one's work, as you so encourage in your piece, results in the affirmation that we are artists and that our voices are heard. Thank you.<br />CathieCathie Beckmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09094610382216635912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-65974045956074189482016-04-21T20:57:44.475-04:002016-04-21T20:57:44.475-04:00Thank you for sharing this.

I have learned so much the past couple of years from the opportunity to volunteer and work on exhibits. It is an amazing experience. I'm noticing a common thread --subjective choices, personal experiences, voice of the artist meeting the right juror at the right time, etc.--running through jurors comments. You summed it up! I think being a juror would be extremely difficult and your statement will help many students and others. So wonderful that Berry had the opportunity to have you interact with their students and have your beautiful shot there!!<br /><br />Terri<br />Terri Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15164659565269878032noreply@blogger.com
