Banana's

7"x5" acrylic on masonite

Banana's painting demo

My booth at the Gallery Gala show

This was the first show that I have participated in that I have had my own booth space. It was also my first time painting in an art show. It was a lot of work, but also a great experience. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't sell more than a few paintings, however, the other artists seemed to be experiencing the same. It was fun to be in the show and I was proud of my work, even if it wasn't a huge success.

  1. Your booth looks great, Brad! Congrats on the sales...although,of course, more is always better. :)
    These are some mighty shaky economic times and will probably get worse before improving way down the road. :(

    1. Thank you Dean! I made some connections at the show and gave out some cards. I think I will sell some more paintings in the future. Overall, I would say it was a successful show. Hopefully things turn for the better for us all...
