This has been the theme of late – delayed gratification. Delayed, sort of like my blogging, but I digress….

Small Flower New Mexico II, 7x21, monotype
Turns out I sold two monotypes that I created almost, gasp, 8 years ago. Another monotype that I made almost 4 years ago was just selected for a large scale hotel project. I never would have guessed it – nobody told me that it would take so long sometimes to sell art. I still really like the pieces, and I suppose somewhere along the way I figured they might never sell and I was happy to keep them. Happier to sell them though!
So back to blogging, I’ve recommitted to getting back to a routine. It’s not that I haven’t had anything to say, just that I found when I had it to say I couldn’t break away to get it written. And thanks to the couple of people who actual made a point to tell me they missed my posts. I promise not to make you wait so long between posts!

Congratulations! It’s funny how you can think differently about work based on whether it sells or not.

Nice to see your enthusiasm for recent a sales, and still a love for your work. I am excited you will be blogging more regularly. Your enthusiasm for what you love is always evident and your words encourage me to continue on my artistic path. Thank you, and see you tomorrow night!

That’s terrific, and the piece shown is so rich. Big congrats!

It happens…. sometimes the work you think is really some of your best just doesn’t sell……For a long time and then bam, someone recognizes how good it is.
Congrats on the sales.
