No Place Like Home



There is no place like home. We had a wonderful weekend but it's always nice to get home. Our son had us stay with him in his nice apartment in the city of Richmond for the Art Affair show. We were only 10 minutes from the show and walking distance from so many restaurants and shops. The show was nice, weather perfect, met some wonderful artists but sales were down due to the economy, seems like everyone was looking and not buying but what do you do just keep on and it will get better,eh. Today my husband has knee surgery, I will be taking him to Salisbury,Md. It's outpatient. I'm taking a book to read instead of paint.. I'm zonked, shows just wear me out.. take care and talk soon. Here is a photo of Daisy at home and a picture of the sky outside out house.. Lovely isn't it!, Diana

  3. I understand about the shows and the economy. I think most of us expected it to get better by now. People just don't want to spend money and I totally understand them. I had a woman come into my tent and absolutely loved a new very large painting and she said she would love to be able to afford to buy it. I said to myself that I wouldn't be able to afford it either. But we do keep on keeping on and it will get better. Won't it?

  4. hi Kathy, thanks for commenting.. I wondered how Stockley was. It's everywhere. My husband gave me some good advice today he said just paint what you love and don't think about selling.. so I'll do that. Keep it in the galleries and keep going.. It will get better.( I'm trying to be optimistic) rest up and take care, Diana
