just before i went to belgium tracy let me sketch at a gig in her livin room. some guy from new york called xavier was doin a wee acoustic set and a local guy from omagh too (i think he was from omagh)
well the gig was good and fun and i reckon there was about 30 folk there. i did some alright sketchin too and sold most which is a bonus. people really seemed to enjoy me bein there doin this and some where like kids on xmas day.
this is good for my ego it must be said...when folk pay for your work it really makes a difference to me. there is just somethin more...sincere to it.
well this is one which noone went for...and in my opinion its the best. ah aesthetics hmmm? just look at the faces in the background...they're class. if only i was always this good...well i guess noone would buy then...eh?
I was there too and Jamie and your work was amazing. And yes, this one is very beautiful.- Zhenia
ReplyDeletethanks very much zhenia...people's appreciation is what keeps me goin :)
ReplyDeleteThat's Gareth in the front and he'd already got one you'd painted him in; Xavier I believe you had to restrain from taking them all (! he loved them), and the girls gazing at him in the background had had to leave mid-gig. :) So I don't think its non-purchase is a fair reflection of its beauty - don't worry! SO glad you're coming back for the next one!!
