Hi,
There are many choices anyone could come up with in
regards to pricing structures. I suppose it just has
to work based on what the artist does that makes it
work for them. The information exchanges on the
subject was good reading contrary to however many
lines were written.
Thanks Abibi for the kind words. They are always
appreciated. In regards to your visiting my site!
Personally I would love juroring to go digital. Thats
only my opinion among the many out there who have
them. I have many reasons. I have digital equipment
and like to use it and it saves me money and time in
many ways. I can instantly change a shot by reviewing
it. I can move it into my computer system and see how
it looks under various lighting without messing with
RBG or CMYK adjustments. I think a slide could be
mileading as well and much harder on some people to
produce without lots of serious gear. Other than that
they could take it to a professional photogrpaher and
get it done. More time and money spent. And yes,
different screens may show some variations. The
trained eye or the juror might take that into
consideration by each one looking at it under those
circumstances? However, on a digital shot they can
zoom in tight and pick it clean if they want to. Also
color adjustments usually can be seen as well within
the shot.
Pro photography uses lenses and filters and various
printing methods also. Would the difference only be
that slides would all look the same (good or bad) and
digital shots may have minor variances in color. Its
just a question that would be interesting to hear some
feeb-back on.

We had our 2 1/2 year old grand daughter Ava aka The Queen of England
for the weekend. On Sunday morning i cook my heart attack on the plate
breakfast- eggs, bacon, home fries, toast, and juice. I put Ava's
breaky on a David Hendly plate. She said Grandpa I don't want that
one! She then then got up and pointed to our plate rack. She wanted a
Ron Meyers plate with a pig on it. What kid wouldn't??? It is
wonderful that choices begin to happen in kids. It's Ok David I
enjoyed using yours. If we had some generic Ikea dinnerware there
would be no choice. It would all be the same. I often encourage our
customers not to buy all of our dinnerware. Spread the wealth. Buy a
place setting from all the potters you admire. Let your friends, grand
kids etc pick their favourites.
cheers,
Tony
P>S Nice colour full page shot of one of Sheila's boxes and Bruce
Cochrane's jar in CT from the Utilitarian Clay Conference. Nice
choices!

Darn, I thought I had the 2 1/2-year-old market sewn up
with copper reds and rutile blues.
Now that our "kids" are 24 and 27, we often have to laugh
at how they turned out. These are kids who never ate off
factory made dishes or saw a TV show unless they visited
friends. They helped build the house they then lived in and
never moved to a new house.
In adulthood, they are the most apathetic consumers you
could ever meet. The shopping mall has nothing they desire.
Like me, they enjoy spotting and laughing about poor design
and craftsmanship, especially suburban architecture. And,
of course, to this day, they are particular about choosing
their favorite plates and bowls for a meal.
When Tony visited Maydelle, he insisted on cooking his
specialty for breakfast. In East Texas, we call this health food
since it includes orange juice.
