I’ve been asked if I’m sad to part with my paintings and my answer is always NO! Sending work out into the world to have its own life, to become a part of someone else’s daily life is an honor (not a great way to support yourself, but an honor nonetheless). When the people who are drawn to a work seem thoughtful, intelligent and kind, it’s that much better. A couple who had just moved to the area saw my painting “THIS” when it was hanging in the window at my shared studio/gallery space in Glencoe. They thought about it, asked about it, came back to see it and bought it. Here it is in their home:
