A New Page...
As of 4pm Friday afternoon my display at the Dan River Art Market was up and running. This is most definitely a new page in the story that is unfolding around my photography. I have been toying with the idea of getting into a local art gallery for some time now, but haven't found the right one for my needs. The DRAM really seems to fit those needs, and I have to say I have had nothing but positive experiences with them so far.
From the time that I arrived to set up my framed pictures until I left for the day, I was made to feel quite special. Of course, room had to be made for the new additions to their Art Market, which they were quick to make happen. I can't believe how lucky I was in the space that they gave me. It is one of the first things you see when entering the market, and is on a very pronounced wall directly in your line of sight.
Please pardon the quality of this picture. It was done with my phone. Kind of embarrassed to say this, but I didn't have a camera with me since I wasn't even thinking about photographing the display. Anyway, you can see that there is a nice table at the base of the wall which has some other crafts, and is home to my bio information as well as my business cards. There is plenty of room on the wall for five or more framed pictures. I think my goal will be to eventually have eight to ten pictures on display at a time depending on how the turnover is.
The other page that is new because of this new venture can be found in the Four Forty-Six Photography Galleries. If you look at the navigation bar at the top of each page, you will see a brand new heading entitled DRAM. This will take you to a brand new page that was created today where I will keep track of the current photographs that are on display. They will be updated as items are purchased and replaced. As I work out a volunteer schedule, I plan on sharing what days I will be at the store volunteering.
Thank you to all that have commented and shared your well wishes and encouragement. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I am quite optimistic about the future of the DRAM, and am very honored to be a part of their growth.

Congratulations Greg even from this distance the display looks wonderful. I like how you've got them in steps taking the eye through the colours.......I felt I wanted to go round again to take them all in again. Excellent :) Rache
