Charleston Art Auction - Part 2
I'm back from Charleston - as you can see Mother Nature was very good to me during the entire three days. Warm afternoons, cool nights and crystal-clear skies. Lucky me. They don't call it the Holy City for nothing - you take ten steps and there's a church. It's a beautiful city.
The auction was a great experience - I was captivated for the entire two and a half hours. It was manic. Lightning fast. I've never seen anything like it. And I'm so proud to report both of my paintings sold. I am so proud.
So....... I'm happily home for a good while and it's time to get to work with new ideas and new paintings ahead.
I am so very happy for you.
ReplyDeleteYou are a pro.
What a great first time experience for you Karin congratulations! But of course I didn't have a doubt in my mind!
ReplyDeleteYou do have amazing paintings so no one can hold not to buy them
ReplyDeleteI love auctions, that must have been so much fun to see your art up for live bids!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteWay to go girl! Don't be surprised though, I'll bet there was some heavy competition for them!
ReplyDeleteGlad you've got some 'home time' now! Congratulations on your paintings being sold - they were so strong, compositionally, and framed so nicely - whoever bought them were the lucky ones!
ReplyDeleteI'm stunned to think you could think your paintings wouldn't sell. If you had a 100 there they would have all sold.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - it is wonderful that some blessed people can now enjoy the beauty of your talents!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Karin!
ReplyDeleteAuctions are big fun.
I love the frenzy!
It gets everyone motivated to buy.
Not hard when the art is so exceptional.

Omagosh!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so bizarre, but after I posted my last comment I went to check the mailbox and I was accepted into my my first ever BIG art auction, too!
Must be something in the wind... : )
