STAR"TISTS SPRING FLOWERS ISSUE | Page 60

Title: Otter Lake STAR: What obstacles do you face in making and exhibiting your work? LAURA.M: I'm always trying to challenge myself with my work so that I'm continuously growing and evolving. An obstacle I face locally is trying to show my work. We have annual art walks each summer in the three surround- ing towns, I've had my work featured in two of them in the last few years. I hope to have some of my new stuff featured in this year's upcoming walk. There aren't a lot of places to show my work other than the few shows they of- fer each year. I rely mostly on my features online, on my website and through word of mouth. 60
