There was an arts festival in town today which is always a fun thing to do. I really enjoyed perusing the booths. I fell in love with a girls paintings which were 6 x 6 oil paintings of things that caught my fancy. Like a hot dog or a cupcake or cookies. I could envision a couple of them hanging in my kitchen. But the price was a bit too steep for me. $100 each. I understand that they are paintings but I'm sure she did not sell one of them. It really is a fine line between what you deserve as an artist and what people will pay, isn't it?
The picture is of a random little girl doing chalk drawings on the sidewalks.
And the sky? It's Saturday after all.
It was a gorgeous day. One that makes me break out in song. Not out loud though, that would just be downright embarrassing for my family. Or anyone in hearing range. So, I sing inside, where it counts.
Hope your day had some blue sky.

Wonderful blue sky! I thought about going out today... but the 112 degrees persuaded me otherwise. (It's almost 9 and 104.. ick)

What's what saying? It's only worth what someone is willing to pay?
Great sky, my Sandy!

$100 actually isn't an outrageous price, especially if it was framed.

$100? I don't think so. Nice try though. What a lovely sky, and what a fun way to spend the day!
