As the year calls its last drinks, I thought I’d post a little summary of my statistics for the year. Call it my homage to the impending tennis season.<\/p>\n
So, what happened this year?<\/p>\n
\u273b as previously mentioned, I had works in eighteen exhibitions That’s it!

\n\u273b I submitted applications for 23 exhibitions\/awards\/grants
\n\u273b I had a positive response from 7 of those 23 – they were mostly for entry into group shows, with one entry into an upcoming book being accepted (though technically this was submitted in December of last year), and more recently a grant for a residency
\n<\/a> \u273b I was knocked back 12 times; the remaining 4 applications (mostly made recently) are still being decided
\n\u273b I made 125 pieces of work (by a rather piecemeal count) though 37 of those are collaborations in the Measuring<\/a><\/em> exhibition
\n\u273b of the 125 works, 13 were gifted to friends and family
\n\u273b I made a further 20 works for the Steal This event, taking my overall total to 145 works this year – 33 given away and the rest for exhibition and\/or sale<\/p>\n
\n[Did I miss anything? I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my coach, and Tennis Australia…]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
