Autumnal Hedgerow


Autumnal Hedgerow

I did say that I was going to leave this blog running for a few days but you know me. I say one thing and do another it is just me. I did not expect anybody to take a look at my blogs again so soon.

I would still love to hear comments about the work I did on holiday if you have time.

I thought today I would share with you this bit of news. During my time away the painting I have included here today sold. I am not sure if I told you in the past but I was offered half of the price I was asking for this painting some time ago. Friends told me not to accept the offer and to believe it was worthy of its value.

I did like the painting so I agreed not to sell. While on vacation it sold at the price I had asked. So maybe there is something worthy of thought there.

I give away paintings frequently and did so while on holiday. That seems so different from being asked to sell at half the value you think the work is worth.
