While we were looking round we heard someone say " I would like to buy these" and then heard my name mentioned! Anyway we met the lady who we had heard-she was buying them for her husbands birthday, when we went back to the payment desk. She explained that he had spotted them and fell in love--and was going to put them in his office.. he came along a few mins later .. So we had a lovely chat-- I know where the paintings are going to live and they have met the artist--it really made my day and theirs ! While we were driving to Church Stretton I had an email from Angela who wants to commission me to paint a monochrome birches painting.. We spoke earlier on the phone and I am just waiting for confirmation of size etc and I will make a start on it. My health means that it takes longer to paint than it used to, as my arms do not move as I would like, but as long as the 'commissoner' understands that its fine,, I was doing a bit better for a short while after being put on some new tablets, but that has gone back to square one at the moment, well more than square one actually, had a huge flare up happen last night which rendered me pretty much unable to move anything..it had been coming on for a few days but still caught me by surprise with its ferocity.. I should be used to it by now LOL.. |
