Of course it is... I actually love that - seeing people outside the Art Walks because it is much more relaxed.
I was painting when he and his partner walked in, they looked around and we started talking... and soon enough it became clear to me that they were collectors and owning a gallery. They contacted me because of a very dear friend of mine (and major fan of my work) who recommended me to them... So there I am wrapping my head around it - because I actually didn't see that coming at all - and in the meanwhile they start happily shopping among my pieces.
The result is: 2 pieces sold, 1 commission and possibly a contract for shows in the Middle East.

ReplyDeleteIt made me feel pretty amazing!! that's for sure :)
DeleteCongrats!! I don't know anyone who has had a show in the Middle East.
ReplyDeleteMe neither RK... but if all goes well I will hang there with some of my fellow artists from Miami. Come to think of it... A Dutch artist (me) working in Miami contracted by a fellow from Corsica to show in Dubai.... lol
