I have posted a note about a possible model exhibition but it should also include art in all its form from photography to sketches.It could also have a commercial aspect with prices on the exhibits. Any thoughts ?

I thought so , be interesting hear how it gos, only last week I stopped in Wigram being invited to display my artwork for selling, directly only given 2 minutes off their time and wanted 100% profit .. ? thought was a little silly , I could have helped them and they could have helped me , just the silly way the museum operates today.

You are right Ian , retailers who stock product want 100% , thats why Amazon etc do so well. What we are looking at was maybe a 20% commission on the sale to make sure the cost of display was covered

Funny , but we are having our first meeting on how where and when on Wednesday. As things develop I will post more Ideally we need around six artists , four or five photographers and some model makers to make it viable.

Its good to see Dons art up display and sale at MOTAT. It looks great. We have had the first discussions about an exhibition at MOTAT but theres some way to go yet.

Haven't seen what the display looks like as I had to drop them and run back to Napier. Here are the work in progress of the Les Munro paintings. Still work in progress for both of them.
