While I am still very determined to finish my "Fresh Start" list, it’s kind of been put on the back burner for a minute. Given that January in Los Angeles in the annual LA Arts Month, I’ve been busy posting previews on my Examiner page for some of the upcoming shows. Even if I only list the one I think are worthwhile…it’s turning out to be very time consuming. But I can’t really complain, this is what I wanted to be busy. Top freelance with various publications. To be a full-time journalist.
The only thing is, when I set aside all those goals, I kind of wanted them my jobs to be paid. Maybe I should have been more specific…hmm.
But still, getting my name out there is always good and exposure from the right publications is worth it as well. So the past few days, I’ve been working on my first piece as an "undercover" reporter. I know, it sounds so dangerous. But no, I’m not uncovering some big government secret, I’m just working to bring you the behind the scenes look at Photo LA.
Photo LA is a four day exhibition in Santa Monica where photographers from around the world come to showcase. Guests are invited, with ticket of course, to look around maybe purchase some art. There you’ll find pieces ranging from $50 to $10,000, all beautiful in someones eyes. That’s the thing about art, it’s all about prospective,
Oh and did I mention I started writing for VAMPD as well? Don’t know VAMPD!? Seriously people, click the link and get to it.
