Here are some works of art that were done for Christmas gifts. I heard back from 3 of the 5 about the happiness of the recipients. The fourth and fifth are most likely very happy – an email and a phone call would confirm it, but I don’t like fishing for praise. So, I will assume that the recipients are happy.
People say they love my pencil drawings, and I believe them. That’s what they choose for commissioned work.
As far as “off the shelf” work goes, the oil paintings far outsell the pencil.
Go figure. . .
