And I thought curating was easy. Not with blank walls and over eighty canvases it's not. Where do you begin, what stays, what goes. Phil the resident curator was great. He bullied me into getting the paintings there the night before hanging day, then insisted we got one wall temporarily up. What a good move as it took till eight the following night to hang the rest. In the end we finished with fifty six paintings. Some I thought good ( which ones do I think are bad?) had to be left out as they didn't fit well with the three themes of, landscape, domestic (my house, mainly kitchen) and abstract.
So far visitor numbers are modest, about twenty five today, but the response has been very positive. The two favorite paintings being one of my table and the other abstract.
