Over the past week or so two of the one string Diddly Bows (Little Grey Tree and the Sweet Hersey) found new homes and hopefully new players! Little Grey Tree was shipped off to Colorado and the Sweet Hersey is on it's way to Texas. It always strikes me as peculiar when something that I created from scratch, whether it be my "noise makers" or hand made jewelry or my art work, ends up in someones hands or home in distant places. Sometimes those places are familiar ones that I have been to while traveling the highways and byways throughout my life that bring back memories of good times and beautiful people that I met during my adventures. Other times my creations end up in places that I have never been, and when that happens it often stirs up feelings of wanderlust.
Recently a couple of awesome patrons from Indianapolis stopped in the Works to look at a couple of pieces of my art. I was taken aback at how enthusiastic they were about my artwork. The guy was excitedly asking to buy pieces left and right, some of which were, unfortunately, not finished. They ended up taking about a half a dozen paintings with them, and I ended up with a really good feeling that money just cannot buy. Although the money that I received from the artwork did buy my pack and myself some dinner!
Besides, the art pieces look way better hanging on their walls than they did just hanging around here at the Works!
I get stoked every time someone send me pics or a video of my creations in their lives! Thankfulness and gratitude to, not only these folks but, everyone who has taken the time and finances to show your appreciation of my work and for bringing a little piece of me and my world into yours. Thank you all so much.
