How did it go? Not bad...at least I didn't come away from it feeling like a big flop or anything :) The five hours flew by because much of the time I spent catching up with dear old friends who stopped by to show their support for me. There's nothing like looking up at the door to see who is coming in and then realizing that the face you're seeing belongs to that of a friend you haven't seen in awhile. It's a really good feeling.
I owe big thanks to my friend Phyllis. She was there by my side for the whole 5 hours. She kept watch when I needed a break, helped with the pouring of tasty beverages :) and brought my attention to potentially interested parties that I might otherwise have missed. Thank you so much Phyllis!
I sold one painting to a really sweet friend and had an inquiry as to whether or not I was selling a piece of my student art. I had been told to be prepared for such inquiries, and I was, sort of, but not really. Next time I'll answer "yes" or "no", not "it could be". Lesson learned : /
The day was definitely not a loss. I had a good time, was able to catch up on the latest news with friends I hadn't seen in a while, met some new people, made a sale and took away a number of lessons learned.
One lesson learned...take pictures for posting. I was so busy, that I forgot to take pictures or ask someone to take pictures, so I have no pics to share with you : ( Oh well, maybe next time (that will be in April 2014).
