the family exhibit went very well: my father sold 11 pieces, my mother 12 and I sold 13! So you can imagine we were/are happy and it was great fun talking to people and how lovely they reacted to our work; there were several woman who were rather overwhelmed by my painting/mixed media pieces and the textiles, with the various home-dyed fabrics: not often seen apparently...... so I'll keep on going On the organisation side, it was truly a family affair: our combined art pieces of course, our two boys helped out by answering the door, hanging up coats and serving drinks, my husband, brother and sister came along to assist 'wherever neccessary' and an aunt from Denmark came to stay for a couple of days, to help out as well; oh yes and a cousin and her husband from Jersey happened to drop by, so all in all a good family get together And of course it would not have been such a success without the guests who came, saw and bought! If you're in the neighbourhood: Sunday 21 Oct. is 'open house' again, I will be there too; the exhibit is in my parents'house: Bredestraat 3 Maastricht The Netherlands |
