NOW!? It's finally happening! After a year of hard work. I honestly couldn't be happier about the paintings the teachers picked to be included and what was more astounding was the place the chose for my paintings. I was sure I'd be in some corner where people won't even bother to go but my paintings have a C shaped space right next to the entrance! It's really fantastic because my paintings are so bloody huge that people can see them from the distance too and when you're standing in the center of them it's like a lookout spot with windows to different worlds.

I'm so happy/excited about it that I can't help but keep smiling like an idiot while I'm writing this.

My sister and boyfriend "helped" to hang the paintings and they did a really great job. Especially since I'm completely helpless with a screwdriver, hammer, saw etc. My sister even climbed these terrifying ladders to fix the lights to my paintings. I was scared just watching that on the ground, but she's the brave one.

The other artist's have great great paintings there too. So I really recommend you visit the gallery as soon as possible.

All my paintings are printed on wiscom board and they cost 500 each. I'm lucky to have sold 2 before the exhibition even began so I'm not nervous at all about my pieces selling. Honestly I'm just happy that some people get to see them in that scale as it's completely different from seeing them on a small screen.

There are few paintings that I haven't posted online yet so I'll post them soon when I get the chance. And I hope someone will take some pics from the opening so I can post them in my journal.
