Cheap Art

Saturday was the opposite of its previous incarnation: instead of blustery, icy cold blizzards, we were treated to 60-degree weather and sunshine. Everyone went outside. I was doing laundry that day and looked out to Broadway, saw the multitudes of people wandering in a spring daze, and decided to capitalize on my theory that spring makes people want to spend their money.

So, as I did in October, I dragged all of my paintings out to the corner of Broadway with a sign that said "MAKE ME AN OFFER!" I was excited by the prospect of getting my stuff off my floor and out of my life for someone else to hopefully enjoy.

And I was successful! It's easy to be successful when you're cheap. I sold seven pieces for about $15-$20 each. As follows:

Swallow The Sea:




Collage #Blue (I was so sick of this one that I gave it away for $5):


Mirror:


Okay, correction. I sold six and I traded one with this adorable li'l boy named Jack for a bracelet he'd just gotten at the Museum of Natural History or something.


Hang On, as inspired by Pink Martini song "Hang On, Little Tomato":








Lookat this little cutie!


These darling fashionistas snatched up two of my favorites.


Gorgeous Blonde Tresses:




and Assault:




And there was one that was so new I didn't even get a chance to take a photo of it. In addition, the fellow who bought Mirror later emailed me and asked me to make him a custom piece as well. I made a li'l bit of pocket change (enough to keep fueling my hobby), and got to enjoy the Saturday chatting with passers-by.

Cheers to cheap art!
