The reception last night was very nice indeed. So many people told me how much they love my work, and as you know if you've read this blog a bit, I spend most of my days like a mole, underground, painting in my Dungeon Studio in the basement. So when a very nice gentleman told me how happy it made him to see "a return to classical painting," I felt honored (though I told him my work is really a long way from classical) and like all of the work was worth it.
There was a healthy attendance up til about 8pm, and friends were there to offer support and cheer. A woman who already owns several of my pieces bought more, and altogether 5 pieces sold. People asked intelligent questions about technique. And I got to meet a few folks about whom I have long heard; the whole evening was a delight.
Very early on, before the gallery filled up, I took this photo of my gallery owner talking with some visitors. I wish I'd thought to take pix of everyone who was there!
Started gessoing the panel for "In Case of Emergency." Can't wait to put some paint on it!
