SOLD!!

For the first time EVER, I have sold a drawing right off of the wall in my studio!! Yesterday during SCIART's Open Studio Event a couple from L.A. came in and fell in love with my drawing "Brothers in Christ".

I couldn't believe it! They asked how much it was and then said they would take it. I was in shock at first. This had never happened to me before. Nervously I exchanged information with them, still not sure this was really happening. It was all very bittersweet for me. That drawing is in my top 3 favorite drawings that I have done. It will be so hard seeing it go, but I know it is going to a very good home. The wife stated this in an email to me, "The drawing depicts a universal brotherhood of caring and support...Your drawing skills are outstanding, and the subject matter conveys true emotion." It is so nice to hear affirmation form someone I have never met before this moment. I am thrilled to know that this will be a gift for their daughter-in-law, who they assure me will absolutely love it.

The other cool thing about this exchange is that they couple is allowing me to keep it for our Holiday Market on December 6th! Such a nice and generous gesture. This will also give me some time to get used to the idea of it not being in my studio anymore.
