Dance Club at the Museum?

Wow, what a weird but fun night the Artist Success Circle had last night at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston (Thanks Again Nora!). I finally got to the Gardner Museum and it was so much fun and so beautiful!
The three story palazzo/atrium or what ever you might call it. It is amazing with it's garden in the center and all the wonderful sculptures. What was interesting about this night was the combination night club/Renaissance museum combo. What a "trip" to be looking at a Rembrandt while two people are snogging (kissing for those of us out of the twenties scene)in the corner. It is an amazing museum with so much to see in a home setting well a little more than a home. I'll need to go back some afternoon to take it in further.
Just a reminder that anyone creative is invited to join us at the Scala Art Center Artist Succes Circle we meet once a month on Monday evening.

Profound Art

Somehow I found myself getting up and walking toward the painting;
or, perhaps, it was coming towards me. And then, without any surprise or hesitation on my part,
I entered the frame.

The Chic Peek by Lisa Scala Jewelry Art & Fashion: Artist Success Circle "Making the Link between Business & Social" Monday May 24th

The Chic Peek by Lisa Scala Jewelry Art & Fashion: Artist Success Circle "Making the Link between Business & Social" Monday May 24th

Great Shots of your Art!

Digital cameras and photo-imaging software have made it quite easy to take pictures and distribute them on blogs, in social media, and even in print magazines. But perhaps you sometimes wonder why some people' pictures come out clear, sharp, and colorful while others—maybe yours?—look dark and fuzzy. Or have shadows in all the wrong places.


Especially when shooting your artwork, you want the result to look as professional as possible. So I asked our design director, Larissa Davis, to share some of her tips on how to take better pictures of your art.

8 Tips from a Pro

Take the photos with natural lighting, if at all possible. A flash causes shadows and glare. Soft, northern light is best. If the light inside isn't optimum, take your subject outside; this works best if it is a slightly overcast day.

Shoot with the light behind you. Whenever possible, take your photo from a vantage point where your back is to the light. Don't shoot “into” the light; your subject will be in shadow.

Use a tripod or other method of stabilizing the camera. Otherwise, use a steady hand. This is especially important with close-ups.

Remove distractions. Take a look in your view finder and look at what's around your subject. Is there a plant behind it? Papers off to the side that you don't want in the picture? Remove any objects that aren't there to enhance the photo.

Neutral doesn't mean boring. It's usually best to photograph your artwork against a neutral background. But that doesn't have to be a white wall. Something with texture, such as Japanese paper or a nubby linen tablecloth can make the subject pop and give it a context.

Vary your angles. Try taking a faraway shot, a close shot, and a detail shot of each element. Shoot from above and from below.

Give it some scale. If you're shooting your artwork for selling purposes, especially, it can be a good idea to style your piece with another object that shows the scale. This could be a tulip, a button, a hand (with the object in the palm), or a house, depending on the piece.

Use a light box. A light box is a professional photographer's tool that reduces glare and shadows and makes it easier to trace and edit your images digitally. A light box also helps bring out the details in your artwork. Fortunately, you can easily and inexpensively make one at home.

If you get a chance to see this documentary do! The movie came with discussion cards that I thought I would share with you.

Discuss: If you're talented, it comes easily, right?

Question: Have you put your creative life on hold for your family?
What were/are the costs to you?
Did you go back to your work?

Discuss: If she's passionate about her art, she won't have anything left for me.

Discuss: "I didn't want my children to look back and say; 'My mom was never there for me.'
I've had to put my art in the background and I struggle with that every day."

Discuss: If I had more time,I would...

Question: "I had lots of people telling me that I was selfish."
Is it selfish to do your own work when you're responsible for the care of others?

Discuss: My secret passion is...

Question: Does your art make people feel uncomfortable?

Question: Janis is inspired by mischievous fairy tale characters.
What inspires you?

Discuss: In the U.S., 51% of all visual artists are female and women hold 53% of all art degrees, but 80% of the faculty members in art departments are male.

Discuss: Single women make 90% of what men make.
Women with children make 73% of what men make.Single women with children make 60%of what men make.

Discuss: Women writers won 63% of the awards but less than 30% of the money in awards reported by Poets& Writers (Jan/Feb'03 issue).

Question: What would be lost if you lived your dream?

Some things to think about.
We are designed to create!

We are having our first meeting Monday March 15th at 5:30 (at the Scala Art Center 28 West Main St. Georgetown MA 01833) to plan what we would like to get out of this group and what this group can give back. We are planning events and topics for the future meetings. We want this group to be open to the creative community. We have a movie night planned, it is the inspiring "Who Does She Think She Is?"

Rare Bird of Fashion The Irreverent Iris Apfel, can you say WOW!!! There is an exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum of Iris Apfel a retrospective of her work and it is inspirational! You need to go to this if your a fashion diva or just to see how powerful women can be. My mom and I spent the day playing and wowing and studying everything Iris collected, designed and put together. We were in aw. Every woman in these rooms were so happy and charged it was the most wonderful energy. Her accessories from around the world were just magnificent and super sized. The fabrics "were to die for" all reproductions of exquisite antique material from around the world.

Visual Display for Artists




Newest Show Displays http://www.lisascala.com/CIP
I have been thinking of doing a workshop or a talk about doing visual displays to help market your art work. I have been doing display work for over 20 years. I started at my parents antique shop and then work at a jewelry gallery for many years. The jewelry gallery is were I got my most creative ideas and allot of experience using creative props to enhance the jewelry. We would redo our display cases and the two front windows every Friday. After awhile people would check what we had come up with on there way to dinner or coming home from work. This made it quite the challenge to come up with unique and fabulous windows! It was allot of fun and hard work sometimes working into the evening.
The important things to keep in mind when creating a successful visual display are:
1) Choose a theme or feeling that you are trying to create. If you stick with things you love they will probably have a connection to your work automatically.
color, style, texture, Asian, vintage, etc.
2) Think out of the box! Anybody can buy the display forms out of a catalog. Your own unique look! Look in your local hardware store, fabric store, or in antique shops to name a few places to find unique display items.
3) Try to keep it simple and clean looking. Keep in mind that your work will add the interest and color, the displays are only to enhance and be a backdrop for the pieces.
4) Show your work at different heights and levels. This can be easily achieve by putting boxes under your fabric or table clothes. Another idea is to use cake stands to lift the work up.
5) I like to use repeated shapes & images to keep the theme flowing. Using your logo in many different places in your display, this a good way to brand yourself and make people remember your art work.
6) Keep in mind that your display must work for every different venue. Sometimes we don't even know the configuration of our both or space before hand so keep this in mind while designing your display.
7) Easy set up! The weight and the amount of time it takes to set up the visual up is a very important thing to consider as well. This is not as easy as it sounds, I'm still working out the kinks in mine.
8) Plan out your display on paper before investing allot of time and money in various items that don't work together. You can work out sizing and shapes so you can concentrate on buying just what you need.
9) You can save money by using things that weren't necessarily meant for display. Be inventive!
10) Have fun with it and get creative! This will show through in how amazing it turns out!
GOOD LUCK!
