Sailfin Sold

You never know what to expect when you submit to a national juried show. The first bit of good news was that I was accepted! Then I had to figure out if we ship or drive it the 4 hours away. I was also not sure of the exact date of moving, so we drove it in. That also allowed me to see relatives who had moved nearby. I was a nice trip away from everyday chaos. I didn’t make it to the award reception of course. The pickup date was moved out a week due to bad weather. I began making plans to travel and the best thing happened. I was contacted by a local art lover who purchased my painting. YEAH!

Now about the painting. It is a sailfin lizard found typically at zoos unless you are in tropical areas like the Philippines. I painted this with soft pastels on UART 500 sanded paper.
