SOLD!

Well, blow me down with a feather, I sold a painting!
The art group that I paint with, AAP Collective, has an exhibition in the front lobby of a local theatre until early January.... I posted about it here.
I don't suppose many people actually shop for art when going to the theatre, but this person did!
And this is what he (or she!) bought.


I am gobsmacked! Totally amazed.

  10. You really shouldn't be gobsmacked Shammi, it's a fantastic piece, I would have bought it too if only I wasn't on the other side of the world 😀 I am always looking at art wherever I go ☺

  13. Congratulations! Isn't it a blessing when someone else recognizes your art and likes it so much that they're willing to pay for it? I have never been anything but gobsmacked (great word) by someone paying for my writing or to see me perform in a band, etc. Not being in any way talented with brushes and paint, I can only imagine how nice it is to complete something that pretty and then, as a bonus, to have someone so appreciate it that they wanted to own it!

  14. Thanks, Jim. I agree, very satisfying to know that someone is willing to part with actual cash to acquire something I have created! I don't think I will ever get over the surprise.
