Hooray A Sale!

After thinking that I'd come out of the Lions exhibition with lots of kudos but few $$$$s... a sale!  My painting of whales, a favourite of mine this year, sold!

Whale Watching

The painting was Highly Commended in the Open section and I hope it's gone to a good home.  It's a largish work (90 x 90 cm) so will need a fair bit of space.

Back to the drawing board (so to speak) and let's hope for a few Firsts next year.

    Anne... Thanks. It's funny how your work travels around the place. Sometimes I wonder where it all is.

    Fiona... Sales are necessary to keep buying more art materials, but to see your work holding it's own, and better, among your peers is satisfying too.
