    I feel your pain bro. I have the same problem with my fine art. I have been to a few local art walks, but generally find my self separated from the "normal and cliche" cowboy and wildlife art. I have been labeled Low Brow and a bit militant too. Which I do not mind. We should start our own show. HAHAHA.

    If you're willing to come to the Springs, a friend has an art gallery here (Modbo). If he'll let me and a friend teach a class on emergency medicine, he'll put your stuff on the wall.

    PM me if you want to get in touch with him.




    By the way - isn't that how liberals always are? The side of tolerance and diversity as long as you aren't any different than them.

    Sometimes hard times like this can really help clarify for us why we are doing what we are doing. And eventually we have to decide, am I really doing this because I love it and am expressing myself in a way that I have to, or am I doing it to try to make a buck? Neither one is necessarily better than the other, but they are significantly different! If people don't love what you do, and won't pay for it, then if you are doing it to make a buck, you gotta' stop. If you are doing it because you love it, and have to do it whether you make a buck or not, then you gotta' keep on keeping on!

    I'd like to see your work. Do you have any images online?

    Whereas the op is a poster-child for tolerance: anyone who doesn't like his art is a "liberal art f*g" and being forced to exhibit his work at street art festivals or punk rock type places is an affront to his dignity.

    Hey, maybe they just don't like your work because they don't like your work. Get over it and move on. And post some pics. I'll show you mine if you show me yours
