Welcome Athens Friends !

September 7, 2008 / by raindance

I wound up my street-side art show schedule for '08 at Athens, AL

yesterday. In spite of some early drizzle and cloudy sky, the show was

well attended, and I had my best sales day ever, with 21 pieces finding

new homes. Admittedly, all but three of those sales were from my "bargain

box," but I was still delighted to expand my circle of painting owners.

The stream of lookers never stopped after the show opened at 10:00AM.

In addition to the large turnout each year, Athens has been a venue where

people come to buy art. So many art strolls seem to be just that....places

to promenade a couple hours, eat some ice cream, chat up friends and

go home. That makes for a very long day for the artists who have gone to

so much trouble and expense to be there. But....Athens is not such a place !

Athens loves and buys art !

Thank you for a great day !!

    It can be feast or famine in the art sales department. When you

    hit a homer, you have to smile. Thanks so much.
