What a weekend!

Wow, what a weekend. There were at least 200 or more people through here Saturday. Fewer on Sunday because of hella rain off and on, but still a hundred at least. Sunday we sold an autograph, a print, and made a preliminary agreement on a larger piece. I was also invited to participate in an arts & crafts fair next summer...I might, not sure yet. I made a fire in the front fireplace, it was cozy and everyone just loved it. There was hardly anyone that came by that was not gaga over our work. The response was overwhelmingly positive.

I have never had so many visitors or such positive feedback in all my cumulative years doing Open Studios in the Bay Area. This was truly the right place for us to come to!

I was exhausted!! Went to bed at about 8 o’clock in the evening!

Today we had a gallery visitor knocking on the door before I opened. I had to close for awhile and go down to the other house to wait for the gas man. I sat out in the front yard and made a nice little drawing while I waited. It’ll be the first to go into the photo-frame—a 15-picture room divider. I decided to fill it up with little drawings for sale. I’ll do as many as I can by next weekend and price them the same as the little prints. $95. This one is of the Morada on the corner. Who knows? The drawings might turn into paintings at a later date as well.

I notice there’s a new artist in town, renting the old post office next to Tafoya’s. It might be a friend of Peggy & eRic’s (yes, that’s how he spells it) that we met at the picnic up in the forest a while back—he mentioned he was moving up here but I thought he was going to rent the old dance hall. I’ll stop in the next day or so and see what’s up and who’s who.

Now must get back to the studio.
