So I won’t be participating in the print exchanges. Either of them. One from rejection and one from choice. I guess it’s okay in the long run though.

I have my finals coming up so I gotta crack down on that. And once this semester is over, I’m taking the summer off. I’m not taking a summer class. I’m getting burnt out and I just don’t have the energy. I’m losing interest fast, but I don’t want to quit considering how far I’ve come. I’m just tired of it.

But I’ll be sharing my (rather elaborate) finals over the next couple of weeks…

I’m considering participating in the Littlest Print Exchange. I missed out on a print exchange last year that I really honestly could have participated in if I hadn’t been a stickler for exact dates and timing.

The idea is that 50 artists get together and make fifty 3.5in x 3.5in prints. Send them in and exchange them. Sounds cool. Nice small prints. I’d have to come up with an idea. And… How exactly would I make this edition of 50? Should I do a sheet of 5 and run it 10 times? Sheet of 10 and run it 5 times? Or should I do each one individually?? That’s a lot of work. I think before I even consider participating, I should see if I come up with a design, and decide on how to execute it. THEN I might sign up to participate if there are still openings. The dates are all pending. It’s open call until they get 50 participants.

Another one?? Okay so I just found another print exchange. PrintZero Studio Exchange #6. Last year they had a whopping 285 participants! For this one there need to be 15 5x7in prints. 2 for exhibition and 13 up for random exchange. The deadline for this one is May 15th. So as long as my prints get there by that date, they’re in. There’s no registration! Yay! But can/will I do it?? I’d be really fun to.
