Off the Page: private view

The private view of the exhibition was a really great time. It was so nice to see everything come together and look so professional too.

I wasn't too prepared- I hadn't put much thought into the recommended "elevator pitch" and I regret it! I had someone, very kindly, talking to me about my work in a way that felt like they knew it more than myself. I wasn't very eloquent and almost definitely embarrassed myself, but I also felt quite nervous in that sort of context! I enjoyed the more casual encounters, and generally felt like the show had quite a relaxed atmosphere which was really nice.

The show has also provided some good opportunities for me and others, through the show someone saw mine and others' work and are now in talks about illustrations for a book he is putting together.
