I Sold A Painting to A Stranger!
Lots of my artwork hangs on walls in my own home and in the homes of friends and family but I had never sold a painting to a stranger until this past Christmas season when this little painting was purchased by a very nice couple. Isn't that nice?

This one needs some more work...I'm kind of stuck with how to jazz it up. I just keep staring at it...
I have not been very productive in the art department lately. Every time I start something I think "this is it, I'll break my rut," but then...I don't. I'm joining in Paint Party Friday. It's been forever since I've linked up and I've missed the interaction and inspiration!

Wow- how exciting to sell a painting. I don't mind your unfinished piece how it is. Maybe a few waves, a little boat near the mountains...the colors are so relaxing.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your sale, how exciting! These are both really nice paintings. Happy PPF! Jana
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It is always so rewarding when someone wants your art and values it!
ReplyDeleteIm loving all the blue. Its serene. I tend to have lots of colors going on in the underpainting. That way even simple scenes have lots of life. Go look out to your water, mountains, and sky. What colors do you see? (have you ever watched the movie: Girl with a Pearl Earring? There is a great scene where he is teaching her to see the colors in the clouds... take inspiration from that!)
Congratulations Rita...and a beautiful painting it is too!! Can't wait to what transpires next with the other one!! Great start!

Congratulations! That's wonderful! I really like the second one just as it is, I think it's very serene and peaceful...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, well done!
ReplyDeleteBlue is one of my favorite colors...my teacher in aquarelle course said I should add other colors (purple, greeen etc.) to make the painting more interesting (sea or lake painting)...but it's difficult for a control freak like me! :) But I try and try...not going to give up.
Have a good week ahead!
selling your work gives a lot of satisfaction, congratulations! it's beautiful, so it's not really surprising people liked it :)
ReplyDeleteCongratilations - you rock :)
