When I went to pick up my paintings from the
Live an Artful Life Gallery in The Plains Virginia last Monday, I discovered that My
Sweet Clementine was purchased at the very last minute!. I got the “no sale” email the day before, so
was doubly delighted. Plus my good
friend (let’s just call her GL) went with me and we had a grand old time
talking with the natives (its amazing how an hour from my home (less than 20
miles from DC) is a simpler, wonderful, rural, hardworking, people-oriented
delight! Luckily my friend navigated me through the terrain.
I thought Morning Fox would
sell at the show but apparently there are too many foxes out there this month. People in that area LOVE foxes. The good news is I will submit him to the Clarke County, Art at the Mill
show coming up this fall – I am hoping he will be accepted and find a few
friends out there! This is a fantastic venue
if you are looking for a variety of art, at great prices, by famous, near
famous and emerging artists. Apparently,
people come from all over including buyers from NYC, DC, FL, etc. making it our
little Shenandoah Mountain secret which just so happens to be around the time
the leaves are turning into amazing colors. Go to this link for details. Psssssst, for my locals, I can get you into the reception for free. Now I just gotta come up with four other paintings to make the submission worthwhile!
I’m actually quite sorry to see this
sweetie go – it is a real favorite of mine.
