Quality Framing and Trouble
I had to stop my association with my framer which was a major drag. I said two things actually. One is that I feel that continuing to put money into professional framing is not only time consuming and hindering my ongoing fight with poverty. Two, I feel that there has been a backlash against the actual quality work of the framer. There has always been some bad feeling for the gallery concerning the fact that it is on the floor I live on which is not necessarily of the same religious persuasion of the congregation that owns and runs it. It might be that the excellent work that has been done is a bone of contention to some significant players in the place.
That was one thing
For some reason, not too long after the conversation and final association with the said framer I was contacted by a good and qualified patron of the arts who was terminally ill. She had painstakingly collected some very important magazines throughout her life and being enamored of them kept them for a long time. She had no one close to her who was particularly interested in her magazine collection and she had no desire for the same old people around her to get rid of these treasured possessions. She told me she was going to bring them down to our place and leave them on the community table for the residents and all who pass it.
As is quite common with high art literature many of the magazines contained controversial if not lurid articles. But not all. I did not manage to collect most of the mags but I did score a few.
The question now is: If the works were approved. And if my continued work was both supported and paid for, how would these prints solve my personal problem of poverty. Future work involves both time and energy. How do I make it payable? That the question.
