So Sunday was the day of the market. I was nervous beforehand though excited at the same time. My pre-event butterflies where mainly down to not knowing where to go and if the setup and lugging about of my stall would be a struggle. But myself and my sister coped, especially with the gratefully received help my uncle gave me.
Rain washed out any hopes of gaining a potential sale or even a few contacts during the first hour or so, yet eventually the weather cleared and we were away!
A few promising enquiries came in with some great potential of orders from a few punters. A comment from one viewer told me of how thrilled she was to see some 'nice traditional portraits', which pleased me and gave me great encouragement. As these comments came in I was thrilled and it made the experience feel worth while
Yet whether or not these people follow through with an order at the end of the day would be an added bonus to what I gained as a creative from that day. I got some great inspiration from these guys, they were all artists like me, they had produced fantastic peices and enjoying the publics recognition of their precious work. There was so much talent on show that it would be very difficult to come away uninspired and not feeling the need to get back to a blank canvas or peice of paper.
Roll on the next events!
