Well, I got a GREAT start on Sadie. A few more light spritzes with some primer, a while top coat, and she would be read to rock. Unfortunately, the weather has decided to become decidedly uncooperative. High winds. Driving rains. Saturday it was so windy it was knocking our metal porch swing around like it was nothing. All of the beautiful leaves have been knocked down by the hard winds and blown away by the gale-force winds. Definitely NOT a good leaf color year. Anyway, I was really hoping to have a good start on Sadie by now, but she sits untouched. Which sucks. I guess if things don't calm down I will finish up that overo drafter and that huge Gus medallion. He's juuuuuust about done. I also need to touch up Blue and try to get him listed (with a reserve this time!)
Speaking of sales, Ben has arrived safe and sound in his new digs in Maryland. His new owner is thrilled with him. I am glad. He sold for a pathetically low sum. I guess I would rather he went cheap and is loved and displayed rather than languishing at my house in a drawer unseen.
My Halloween swap partner also received her reiner and foal butterfly customs. She loved the reiner and plans to show him. That's good news. I sure hope he shows well for her. I'd love to get some NAN-qualified pieces under my belt. I need to get my name out there and show I can turn out quality pieces.
I ordered some business cards from VistaPrint. Free but for shipping. I figure I need to get in a serious mindset. I figure I will throw a card in when I sell a piece. I'm not looking for Big Name Artist status but I'd like to have some recognition.
Here's to hoping the weather calms down and I can get started on Sadie!
