I made the decision to go ahead and participate in High Hand Gallery's Artfest slated for March 23rd and 24th. This event provides an opportunity for artists to 'demonstrate' their artwork in progress. Since it is hard to demonstrate photography processes (i.e., darkroom process, digital printing, photo transfers) in public I have decided to demonstrate matting and framing techniques. It's not something I really wanted to do and I don't give lessons on 'how-to' photograph, but at least it's something that would be invaluable information for up and coming artists who need to know. So there you have it. I had already started writing procedures for cutting mats with drawings, so I've picked up on that and will finish the procedures for this event. I will take my large mat cutter and other supplies to demonstrate mat cutting, and also demonstrate how to frame and close off an image with paper backing.
