Hi there, Here are two photos of me at the Lexus event tonight. The place is amazing for an automobile showroom. There are crystal chandeliers and a piano in the showroom and there are two lounges and a workout room for customers. The food was excellent, they served cocktails and we were entertained by a wonderful guitarist. Most people were there to enjoy the event and not buying but it was free to the artists and a great place to network. So though I didn't sell anything I think I did make some good contacts and I had a great time. It's amazing how many artists I seem to meet anytime I am painting in public. I think we need more people buying art and less producing it, maybe? lol Kidding, we have to keep painting no matter what, right?

I enjoy seeing photos of events that other painters are involved in. Thanks for posting.
Looks like you had a great night. Thanks for sharing.
It looks pleasant. It is so important to keep doing these things until art features great with everybody! Buying follows on later, Barbara!
Wow, Barb! I saw these photos on FB and couldn't wait to get to your blog to say you and the display looked fantastic! Your paintings are beautiful and it's good seeing them together like this! These events get your name and face out there. As Marie said, sales will come later. Love the piece you were working on!
Hi Ladies, It was a fun event. I think sometimes it can take months before you realize the outcome of your ventures. I didn't have any expectations really. Thanks everyone for you support.
The paintings look really great. I 'm sure you'll get some business from the show later.
Thanks Connie, I think so too. Appreciate your visit, thanks!
What a fabulous event, Barbara! You really seemed to have great set up and you never know when a new connection will end up becoming a new collector!
Good to drop in on you again.
Hi Marian, So nice to see you. It was such a nice event. I'll be by to see you again soon. :)
Hi Barb, Loved catching up with your work ! You've been busy and the works are so nice. Im trying to get back to blogging- have been painting just not following thru in the blog....best to you!
Hi Laine, Nice to see you. I check in on your blog from time to time. Glad to hear you will be posting again soon. The fact that you have been painting is the most important thing though.
Hey Barbara,
This is my first visit to your blog. The event does look very nice, but I do agree with you art buyers are often the missing ingredient at even the best attended affair!
Very much like the light on your plein air yellow house.
Thank you for your visit Shirley, we'll just keep painting and hope art will become more important to consumers in time.
