Selling Art Outdoors

I had a great experience this summer at the Artist's Walk in White Rock BC. Because of the covid pandemic, things were somewhat different than normal, with  masks when in close proximity, and limitations on gathering. But it was so nice to get outside and to show my art. And to paint by the beach! 

Some things that I needed to think about were:

• getting a canopy
• what types of cards/cash I would access
• how to deal with wind and sun and bird poop
• inventory of originals/prints/cards and figuring out what to bring
• packaging for sold items
• fitting stuff in my tiny car
• streamlining a quick setup that I can do by myself 
• what to do when things are quiet - bring a plein air painting setup! 

This is a new venture for me, and I loved it! I'm looking forward to continuing, weather permitting. I don't think I'll have a winter booth. :)
