Seeking Career Advice

Well, the Liquitex campaign photo shoot is over, and I'll be appearing in an interview in a series of spots for their 50th anniversary, along with the other famous art Jamie, Wyeth (son of Andrew), in one or another major art magazines, thus getting me in the back door. Much to their credit, the interview had almost nothing to do with the paint (which, thank god for my internal sense of ethics, I happen to like and in fact need to create this side body of work) and the experience has so far been very pleasant and free of that certain queasy feeling.

I just got a call from the Seattle Art Museum sales gallery, minor offshoot though it be, and I'm getting yet more possibilities for the Arctic expedition, and possibly two or maybe three useful small shows in Seattle in the upcoming year.

All small steps, to be sure, but I suddenly have to face an odd problem: What if this all actually starts working? I have no plan for this contingency.
