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.

  5. Glad 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!

  6. I'm stunned to think you could think your paintings wouldn't sell. If you had a 100 there they would have all sold.

    Auctions are big fun.
    I love the frenzy!
    It gets everyone motivated to buy.
    Not hard when the art is so exceptional.
