Artist |
What do/did you do? |
Sold watercolors and pencil drawings at art show.
I really do not consider myself an artist. A friend recommended this book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. I thought it was about the brain. It’s not. It’s how to draw. I had taken it on vacation, so I bought supplies and did all the lessons and really enjoyed it. And I did it. Each one was initialed, wrapped in Saran Wrap and put in the boxes facing forward. I met her on Thursday. We set up her easy-up canopy. I put a sheet over a folding table. And I went to work. After work, I came to help break down and she had raised all my prices. I nearly sold out in the four days. I gave her the rest to sell for all her help. She called for the next show, but I was over it. |
