Beehive Marketplace

On Friday I attended the Beehive Marketplace in Kosciusko, MS.  The good part of the day included a wonderful old Presbyterian church where we displayed our wares.  I carried about 28 paintings and sold two.  It is amazing, really, that when you carry paintings out to sell, you think you know which ones will sell.  Then some of the others, that you just added to the stack, are the ones that sell.  You never can foretell.  In fact, the ones that sold were not my newest ones, but ones that had been admired by customers for years but never sold until now.  So I was happy.  The less-good part of the day was the torrential rain driving home in the dark for ninety minutes.  I was worried and exhausted but I got home safely.  No more out of town shows this year.  On the other hand, I will be in my Miss. Artists Guild show in December at Spectacles.
