Let me tell you a little bit
about what I do. I’ve been an artist all my life. I moved to Houston in 2004
and did all the regular venues, art markets, galleries, co-ops, etc… I joined a
non-profit corporation and quickly found myself running it. Since then I have
been involved in many non-profit organizations and groups for artists in the
Houston area for about the last ten years. I have always worked hard for the
cause but not getting much monetary gain so I decided to seek opportunities
where I could make a bit of money. Now I started Creative Energy Art at the
beginning of 2017. I find many businesses want to show original artwork by
local artists but want someone to organize it for them. I’m so happy working in
this capacity, finding wall space for the artists and curating local businesses,
taking the artwork to the people instead of trying to entice people to enter a
gallery or studio, although I still work with galleries and studios when I get
the opportunity. So far this has been pretty successful. I don’t charge the
artists much for the service and some of the venues want to handle the sales,
others don’t. Each has their own idea of what they want to see on their walls
so I put it out there, organize and market the receptions, advertise, and hang
the artwork. All the artists have to do is send me digital images for approval
and deliver their work. Some venues do not want to handle the sales so in that
case, the artists have the opportunity to handle the sales and keep 100% of the
sale instead of paying commission.
