Butterflies are gone! SOLD~~


Sold all these butterfly paintings today ... all 9 of them! Which means... most of that work is now placed.

It's always a thrill to sell art-- and I've been doing more of it this week than before. Hopefully-- that's a sign that things are beginning to change economically. It's been such a long-haul to get through this downturn recession as an artist. I've tried to think outside the box... and do everything I can do to remain an artist.

So... here's to a great day!!

WE all need more days like this in our artistic lives!

Congratulations, Carol! It's always a boost to sell the work you've created (but you'll always be an artist, even if you never sell another piece - heaven forbid!!!).

I am always surprised to see where the photos we make together show up, and how you work with them! I remember thinking when we took these, what is she going to do with this?
