Especially when I'm only showing larger pieces.<br /><br />I've had people see my art in a gallery and then buy something a year later, saying they've been "eyeing" my work since they first saw it. I never knew. <br /><br />I guess I just find it an awkward question when people ask because I can't very well explain all this, so instead I have to endure their sad, frowning faces, which are unwarranted.<br /><br />(Plus, I've sold over 100 original paintings in 3 years... I mean, hellooo people. It's cool.)<br /><br />Thanks for your comment. :o)<br /><br />love! <3Shayla Maddoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08258335546244298221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1965288513954980834.post-13895114823854732942010-04-21T15:24:23.542-07:002010-04-21T15:24:23.542-07:00Sometimes it's not about making sales immediat...Sometimes it's not about making sales immediately as art tends not be an impulse buy but something people ponder and thinking about before taking the plunge into purchasing a larger piece. <br /><br />i find people like to build relationships with artists even the silent kind where they are just a reader but not a commentor and when you least expect it they do indeed buy from you.<br /><br />Artwork needs to be received before it can even be bought. I think just the act of showing your work and having it received by an audience who was receptive to it in a positive way was a success in and of itself.<br /><br />love you! xoJessica Doylehttp://jessicadoyle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1965288513954980834.post-8994216413214491642010-04-21T15:08:02.309-07:002010-04-21T15:08:02.309-07:00Thanks so much for your encouragement!
