Every Sunday as I stand in Dublins Merrion square attempting to sell a piece or two I'm constantly dealing with mainly tourists , you could bet your house on it that during the day you will be asked several times ... 1: ' How long did it take you to paint that ' 2: ' My great auntie Winnie used to paint .... in watercolour ' 3: This one I call the ' brush off ' its when a tourist asks how much a painting is and realises it's ( gulp ) to expensive and they always say , ' I cannot take anything framed on the plane ' Would love to hear others artists favourite questions from .. mere mortals
As They look around they say "I haven't any wall space" - depending on how they say it I'm tempted to say " Go on! Live a little! Stuff one under the bed and buy another!
Blimey that a bit steep..... But you don't question the cost for a new car... sofa..... tv...... Also... How long? I tend to say 7 inches I am guessing..... Oh the painting...erm roughly 4 - 6 weeks. Maybe.
