Digital sales not a viable business alternative for local art galleries NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

No business these days is immune from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, be it ones that fall under industries designated “essential” and those who don’t. Many in the latter category have resorted to completely digital means to keep going with varying degrees of success, but this isn’t really a viable alternative for Santa Barbara’s many art galleries. For one thing, the era of economic uncertainty means that many Santa Barbara residents will think twice about buying art with what would formerly have been considered disposable income. In an interview with the News-Press, Sullivan Goss gallery Owner Nathan Vonk pointed out this reason along with his gallery’s closure for its sales decrease, which he estimated is around 80%. “Art is not something that people are buying a lot because they’re worried about other things,” he said. This was echoed by Diane Waterhouse, eponymous co-owner of Waterhouse Gallery along with her husband Ralph Waterhouse. “I think people are focused on the virus, their health, what the future holds,” she said. The owners are trying to boost the online sales of their gallery, but to no avail. This ultimately is a prospect of unlikely success according to several gallery owners, who told the News-Press variations of the same thing regarding the possibility of increasing online sales to offset financial losses due to lost gallery visitors. Even if there were no economic uncertainty from the coronavirus, buyers tend to like physically seeing artwork before spending a thousand plus dollars on it. “Almost always they’re going to want to see it in person before they buy it,” Mr. Vonk said. Sullivan Goss displays works featured in its current and past exhibitions on the gallery website and is presently trying to bolster its online sales given the situation. However, Mr. Vonk added that he has no illusions about the possibility of digital sales making up the loss of in-person sales. So long as he has the overhead of Sullivan Goss’ location on Anapamu Street to pay for, under no circumstances would this even be possible. “I would never be able to cover all my costs just by doing online retail. Not even close,” he said. Similar sentiments were stated by 10 West Gallery Director Jan Ziegler, who told the NewsPress that her gallery hasn’t experienced any sales since it shut its doors on March 16. As she explained, 10 West’s website isn’t so much a means of selling art, but rather a way of getting people into the gallery, which is where they ultimately make a purchase. “When a customer sees something they like on the website, it brings them into the gallery, which

and book buyer Greg Feitt said is constant during business hours. “We have essentially three lines ringing and they’re ringing non stop throughout the day,” he told the News-Press. While business over the phone has certainly increased, Mr. Feitt remarked that nothing beats having customers actually walk through the store’s front door. Not only was it much more pleasant to see customers walk in and browse the store’s shelves, but exclusively taking phone orders and bringing them outside to customers is far more labor intensive. Additionally, although Chaucer’s is certainly seeing business during the pandemic, the fact that most people are staying in their homes rather than going out means that business is not nearly as good as before the outbreak. “We’re doing twice the amount of labor with 60% of the staff for forty percent of the former income, so that’s the tough part,” Mr. Feitt said. Under ordinary circumstances, Chaucer’s employs around 26 people, but its staff has been cut down to around 18. According to the general manager, employees not working at present elected to self-isolate because they are either older individuals or have

Galleries are struggling to find their footing in the digital world. in turn, exposes them to all of the work displayed,” she said. In the experience of Yuliya Lennon, owner of the self-named Yuliya Lennon Fine Art, online art sales work best for smaller items, reprintings, and gifts in the price range of $50 to $100. When it comes to original works on canvas with a price tag in the neighborhood of $1,000 and up, they like to see the piece on the wall in front of them as there are qualities in the originals that aren’t captured in reprints or online digital images. “It’s not the same. Artwork has a physical aspect to it,” Ms. Lennon said. Of all the galleries who spoke to the News-Press, Waterhouse expressed having the most prominent online sales. Prior to the pandemic, online sales tended to account for a sizable minority, 35%, of its total business. The rest of its business consists of in-person sales, which the co-owners estimated divides into 60% outof-town individuals and 40% local residents. Thus, even if restrictions are soon lifted, Waterhouse is unlikely to experience sales it is used to until Santa Barbara’s tourism industry is restored to full health. “No tourism hurts us, no locals hurts us,” Mr. Waterhouse said. “It’s a double whammy.” While galleries are still making sales, they have tended to be purchased from art collectors or individuals who have bought from the galleries in the past and are already familiar with the work and its quality. Mr. Vonk and Ms. Lennon both said that this is the case with their business. The latter went as far to say that she has “never sold anything through Facebook or Instagram advertising to people I’ve never met.” Online sales may not be an engine for restoring lost revenue, but galleries are using their digital presence to let the public see exhibitions they had planned for the near future that can’t presently be seen in person. Sullivan Goss al-

ways has three exhibits mounted at its location and is currently in the process of switching two of its current showcases. According to Mr. Vonk, his gallery is increasing its online outreach to promote the exhibits that will soon be hung up. At the same time that COVID-19 shut down business as usual, Santa Barbara Fine Art Gallery was scheduled to open “Along the Way West,” an exhibition showcasing the works of local landscape artist Michael Drury, who founded on-location painter organization The Oak Group. Co-owner Julie Schloss told the News-Press that although the exhibit’s reception has been postponed, she hopes being able to see Mr. Drury’s latest works on the gallery’s website will bring joy to the public at this time. “When Michael gave us the paintings that were going to be in the show, it really brought happiness to me so I can imagine what it’s going to do for collectors who are seeing this through Instagram, Facebook, and the website,” she said. Until restrictions are lifted, many Santa Barbara galleries have their own ways of weathering this storm. Mr. Vonk has enough saved up to pay for his expenses without laying off any of Sulivan Goss’ employees until around mid-summer. Ms. Lennon has paid work as she was recently commissioned to paint a book cover. Though 10 West has made no sales as of late, Ms. Ziegler expressed gratitude that it has a benevolent landlord that is allowing the gallery to pay whatever it can afford while business is disrupted. Santa Barbara Fine Art Gallery also has a landlord willing to work with it through this difficult time. Considering that other small local businesses she has seen haven’t been so fortunate, Ms. Schloss expressed gratitude that the gallery is in a relatively good position. “We’re one of the lucky ones,” she said.

pre-existing medical conditions that make them vulnerable to the coronavirus. Mr. Feitt said that Chaucer’s is still paying for their health insurance and that those not currently working have gotten unemployment benefits. Unfortunately, paying the furloughed employees isn’t an option. Like countless other small businesses, Chaucer’s applied for the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program but wasn’t lucky enough to receive stimulus funds before the program ran out of money. Mr. Feitt remarked that his store is waiting in a queue for a second round of funding to materialize. While Chaucer’s like most businesses has felt its overall revenue decrease due to the COVID-19 situation, Mr. Feitt told the NewsPress that he is still “impressed” by how many people are ordering books from the store. That’s not to say he’s surprised though, as there are many local residents understandably looking for ways to pass away their time at home. “With everybody being isolated at home, the need for entertainment, the need for education, and the need for escape is now greater than ever,” Mr. Feitt said. As it turns out, many customers have looked to the same items to achieve these needs. Mr. Feitt recalled that educational books and workbooks were among the first

items to sell out as parents came by to pick them up for at-home lessons. Besides books, the store’s most in-demand item for entertainment is jigsaw puzzles. “We always carry around a hundred jigsaw puzzles and we sold out of those in March,” Mr. Feitt stated. Chaucer’s sells many fiction books under normal circumstances, but Mr. Feitt has noticed that the store has sold an especially large amount of fiction since the full effects of the pandemic kicked in. This he chalked up to people looking for escapism at this stressful time. However, there’s no shortage of individuals seeking out nonfiction and fiction books on plagues and viruses. Books in stock at Chaucer’s that have been popular as of late include Albert Camus’ 1947 novel “The Plague” and a variety of nonfiction titles on the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918. Though on the surface this seems somewhat opposite of searching for comfort, Mr. Feitt suspects those customers may be seeking solace in the fact that outbreaks of this sort have happened in the past and been dealt with. “There’s a comfort in knowing that these things have happened before and how they were dealt with,” he said.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Libra, as though you can do anything. Enjoy this abundance of energy, for it’s certainly unusual. Take care not to overdo it. If you haven’t jogged in a while, running five miles today will leave you pretty sore tomorrow. Similarly, don’t try to finish all your household repairs in one day. Remember that slow and easy wins the race and keeps you in shape for the long haul! SCORPIO — This would be a good day to putter about the house, Scorpio. It isn’t a good day to travel or begin any major projects. This could be just the excuse you’ve needed for taking a day off from your life! You need not answer the phone or fulfill any obligations whatsoever. Simply stay put and tackle some minor household chores. If even that proves too much, then curl up with some tea and a good book. SAGITTARIUS — This isn’t the best day for get-togethers, Sagittarius. What starts as a friendly lunch could wind up a gossip-fest. No one wins in that situation. You could fear leaving the table because of what they’d say about you. There’s no upside to the situation, so your best strategy might be to stay home and work on chores. At least you’ll have the satisfaction of feeling that you’ve accomplished something. CAPRICORN — Don’t take anything you hear today at face value, Capricorn, especially where money is concerned. A wellmeaning friend could approach you with an opportunity not to be missed. Listen to the pitch and take down all the information, but don’t make any kind of commitment. You’ll likely see several flaws when you review the information later. Point them out to your friend. You’ll save this person money and embarrassment by speaking up. AQUARIUS — This would be a good day to stay home and spend much of the day in bed, Aquarius! You’ve been working especially hard lately, juggling both home and work with your usual aplomb. But today you could feel a bit worn out and overwhelmed by everything that remains to be done. Give yourself a day of rest. Spend the day with a good book or some movies. You’ll find this solitary time refreshing. PISCES — Love is very much in the air today, Pisces, so take advantage of this auspicious environment! Invite your loved one over to play hide and seek under the bedcovers! Or, if you don’t have a playmate in your life at the moment, find other ways to fulfill the passion you feel. Spend the afternoon reading a good novel or invite a friend to watch a movie with you. Have a good time!

HOROSCOPE

Since 1981 I’ve written a monthly column for the ACBL’s magazine. Many have been “over-my-shoulder” tyle. You listen in on my thoughts during a deal. Ninety of the best of these appear n “Play Bridge With Me,” my 23rd book, just published. The deals are ntermediate level; the focus is on ogical thinking. At today’s four spades, I win the irst heart in dummy and lead a diamond. I can’t risk losing an early rump finesse; I need a quick pitch or my heart loser. East wins the econd diamond and returns a heart, and I win to discard dummy’s last heart on my high diamond. When I inesse in trumps, East wins and exits with a trump.

By Dave Green

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” — John C. Maxwell

ARIES — This is a day to stay close to home and organize the house. You might be thinking how you can best utilize your living space. It’s clear that some improvements are in order, Aries. Perhaps you could begin by tackling all those minor repairs that you’ve been putting off. Once those are done, a fresh coat of paint will do wonders to brighten both your home and your outlook. TAURUS — You need rest, Taurus. Even though you have a long list of tasks, see if you can leave some for later. All signs indicate that you shouldn’t stray too far from home today if you can help it. You’re easily distracted, which makes you prone to accidents. Being behind the wheel of a car isn’t the place for you right now. Stay home and tackle all those little chores you’ve been meaning to finish. GEMINI — You’re on your own when it comes to financial matters, Gemini. This may not be what you want to hear, but it’s how things are. Trust that your business acumen will pull you through. Don’t take anything at face value. Pay attention, write down the information, but make no commitments and sign no contracts. The environment isn’t right for any deals. If a deal is valid today, it will still be valid tomorrow. CANCER — Today would be best spent alone behind closed doors, if possible. There’s a lot of tension in your household for some reason, Cancer. Since there isn’t much you can do about it, try to avoid it altogether. Let your family members fight it out among themselves. You have better ways to spend your time. Why not take in a movie? When you go by yourself, you don’t have to share the popcorn! LEO — There is a lot of tension in the air today, Leo. It isn’t just affecting your home environment - everyone you meet seems out of sorts. You’ll be happiest if you spend much of today in solitude. Books don’t honk their horn at you and DVDs don’t curse your driving ability. Who needs the aggravation that a day like today can bring? Enjoy a day away from other people’s bad moods. VIRGO — You feel that life would run more smoothly if money didn’t exist! The amount of time and energy you spend sorting out your financial affairs is frustrating. Unfortunately, Virgo, today will be a frustrating day. Today you need to sit down and sort out some neglected bills. It isn’t fun, but at least by the end of the day you’ll Monday, Novemberof16, 2015 have the satisfaction knowing that you got it done. LIBRA — You feel invincible,
