In an art fair, you turn yourself into an object.

Then he can sell anything he touches .

• One of our chief needs as creative beings is support.  Unfortunately, this can be hard to come by.  Ideally, we would be nurtured and encourages first by our nuclear family and then by ever-widening circles of friends, teachers, well-wishers.  As young artists, we need and want to be acknowledged for our attempts and efforts as well as for our achievements and triumphs.  Unfortunately, many artists never receive this critical early encouragement.  As a result, they may not know they are artists at all.
