I would like to see the entries of 2009.

I looked at it,and I'm not really interested;I never do well in galleries;around here,the galleries survive by the owner working at a full time job to support it,or a spouse that does that.Either way,(although this is surely an exception,its NY)nobody ususally sells anything;leastways,very few do.As far as I'm concerned,galleries are an "ego trip"artist usually ends up paying for.People tell me,they go to art galleries to pick up girls. Such an aesthetic motivation. I prefer commercial enterprises,for art.You know,they pay you.
