art

Public Service Announcement: Yes, I do feel attached to my art, and I have separation anxiety. But I have found that when someone REALLY wants a particular piece, and they really love it, I gladly give/sell it to them and have no issues with it, quite the opposite. So here's a proposal: if anyone REALLY wants any particular piece of my art, please

Rilke print!

Sold. I can either mail it or ask Tal to bring to ny next time he goes

I cannot do a creative exchange, last time I did anything creative was ceramics, and that was some 10 years ago. An NSF proposal? It's creative writing all right.

[alisa_ivanovna]

hmm. what are you proposing to NSF? and does it have pictures and conversations?

I definitely DO NOT want art back, I am getting rid of mine due to lack of storage space. It breaks my heart, because there is so much wonderful art out there...and I keep buying more from my students...

If you feel extra rich you can buy it from me, or, you can have it for free and take me out for tea and cake next time I'm in NY.

[nissets]

I am a strong believer of paying for the work done or sold. So - name your price.
As per tea and cake, - next time you are in the city, give a shout, and we'll have a go at the Tea and Sympathy.

[alisa_ivanovna]

ok. how about $50.

[nissets]

totally. Paypal?

[alisa_ivanovna]

no way. I want a nice heavy package of nickles, with a pretty ribbon.

[nissets]

Категорически протестую. Только царскими червонцами.

[alisa_ivanovna]

ok, that was a joke.
i really like getting mail. how do you feel about check? I'll send you the print the same way. :0

[nissets]

But you have to keep in mind that - the chances are low, but still - I decide to include a drawing of mine with the letter, you'll be guaranteed a few sleepless night, with possible medical intervention.

[alisa_ivanovna]

you think? I am fairly seasoned....

[nissets]

and I am fairly horrible

[nissets]

I can reassure you that content and quality of people's creative endeavors is the very last item on the long list of possible causes for sleepless nights. Likewise, a side effect of my profession, is that judging art, or people by their art, goes against my needs and interests. Therefore, i will be happy to receive your however horrible in the mail, and i can promise that the act of receiving itself will be very satisfying.

[alisa_ivanovna]

you can send it to this address!
