Bre Pettis | I Make Things
Categories: Old Posts

This is the worst video I’ve ever made. It’s long. It’s rambling. I show a lot of junk. I laughed. I feel rather vulnerable showing it. I felt so awkward after making this video that I remade it and did a take two… I haven’t even looked at it yet. I’m sure it’s horrid as well.

Disclaimer: Most of the paintings that I show on my shelf aren’t mine, I traded for them. It’s not clear in the video so I wanted people to know that unless I said i did it, I may not have.

Update: Jennifer has told me to make this into 6 small videos and do them right. She is right of course, and so I shall. I just had to make a video so this is what happened!

Warning: This video is over 13 minutes long!

Sometimes its good not to worry too much about right though, eh? Good art often makes the viewer and/or the artist uncomfortable… for the record, I watched the whole thing mostly because you admitted that it made you uncomfortable beforehand, and I thought “hey if it made Bre uncomfortable, this must be worth something”. Not that that will work EVERY time……. ;-) -serra

You said you sell your 30 paintings that you made in 30 days for $30 I like the idea but were did you find people to buy them?
