Showing Your Art in Other States / Kim Casebeer Show


Sunset in Tallgrass, Oil on Panel, Kim Casebeer

After I get a new artist in, and help build his/her career a bit, I’ll then often help them get into galleries elsewhere: east coast, west coast, southwest. This is critical to the development of any career, since you really can’t expand that career if you only show in your region.

Case in point: Kim Casebeer. Her opening is tomorrow night. 20 new works. Magnificent Impressionist. I expect to sell about half the show by 9:00 p.m. (when I always turn out the lights, no matter how many people are in the joint, and head out to dinner with friends). The reasons why I anticipate this are many: she’s a great painter, she has a great following, and she shows in Scottsdale. The first two are the most important. The last one is significant only if you’re in a provincial city. My clients all know that Kim does well in Scottsdale (and soon Jackson). I make sure they know it. This helps those who have been sitting on the fence to cross over. We later celebrate over sushi.

Oh yes, she was featured in the April issue of The Artist’s Magazine. Nice little coup for her; she’s earned it.
