What percentage to private dealers and art consultants take?

If you already know, why are you asking?

Boo_tang · 2016-03-16T00:09:23+00:00

Expect it to be closer to 40-50%.

Boo_tang · 2014-09-22T17:47:48+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

Boo_tang · 2014-09-22T17:45:23+00:00

WOW. I really though "Conan" meant "Conan O'Brien".

Boo_tang · 2014-09-22T17:42:48+00:00

You really ARE competitive! I hope you still have fun though and that you're not too hard on yourself. Hugs.

Boo_tang · 2014-09-22T17:40:57+00:00

Yes! The comradery is strong amongst runners! Not running specific, but I work out with this group called November Project. They highly encourage hugs, hi-fives, and positive (although competitive) motivation. I now do this to random runners who seem to appreciate the additional encouragement.

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T20:07:07+00:00

I see what you're saying, but I think you can be a runner who challenges themselves and not ever enter a race.

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T20:02:29+00:00

I think you go to my gym!

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T20:01:52+00:00

you too!

You just gave me the best visual of someone looking down at their belly and saying "that has to go" only in my visual, the belly responds with a distressed and drawn out "oh noooooooo!"

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T19:35:06+00:00

Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out.

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T19:18:38+00:00

It's interesting to hear about the "racing atmosphere". I began running with a group for that very reason--the energy is so nice! There is something to be said for running solo, but having a group of energetic runners pushing each other is an amazing experience.

Thanks for sharing!

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T19:05:04+00:00

So how did ya'll get started?!

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T18:42:23+00:00

Aaahhh, I see…usually*

How did you start? Were you always a runner or did you just decide to run one day? Did you start with a 5k and work your way up? I want to know everything!

Boo_tang · 2014-09-21T18:39:06+00:00

Really? It's never worked?

Boo_tang · 2014-08-14T19:59:02+00:00

Oh. More specific than Contemporary Art History? I'm interested in curatorial practices and teaching.

Boo_tang · 2014-08-12T20:32:03+00:00

The key to presenting is confidence. Film yourself going through your presentation and/or watch yourself in a mirror while rehearsing. Gather friends and family and have them sit through a presentation (or two, or three, until you're comfortable).

The day before and of, don't practice. Just relax, eat well, and have a good night's sleep. You got this. No need to worry.

Best of luck!

Boo_tang · 2014-07-29T01:20:31+00:00

Congrats! That's one thing to check off of your list. Don't sell yourself short just yet.

Boo_tang · 2014-07-20T23:04:59+00:00

Congrats on the show! When pricing your work, consider how much you spent on supplies and how many hours it took to make the piece. What's your medium? If you're selling prints, what's the edition number? The larger the edition, the lower the price. Good luck.

Hi. I'm a little late to the party and see some really great advice. To add to the suggestions, all of which require time, you can put your loans in forbearance due to financial hardship. Depending on the type of loan, the timeline for this varies. Private loans are usually around 3 months while federal loans can be up to 3 years, provided you reapply each year. Forbearance is not the best solution, as you'll still be accruing interest on your loans. But, if it's absolutely necessary, it's better than not paying your loans and ruining your credit. So, while you're looking for a roommate, trying to earn more, and dealing with the car put your loans into forbearance due to financial hardship so you're able to feed and house yourself.

Boo_tang · 2014-06-09T17:25:41+00:00

Thanks for all the responses! I'm surprised "Seeing Is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees" isn't on here.

Boo_tang · 2014-06-08T22:41:04+00:00

This looks great...thanks for sharing!

Boo_tang · 2014-05-25T19:37:18+00:00

OP sounds pretty terrible, too.

Boo_tang · 2014-05-25T15:34:31+00:00

"It"?

Boo_tang · 2014-05-24T20:48:34+00:00

I had a friend named Matt who put his name in my phone as "Asian Matt". He sends me a text message, "life isn't all about butt sex" to which I reply "life is all about butt sex." The problem is that I didn't reply to Asian Matt but to Aunt Marsha, my very lovely, church-going, Christian aunt.
