Sold

The car is gone …. good or bad?

 

The car was always slightly different to the other paintings I was working on.  Firstly it was the only one which was actually small enough to be moved by one person alone, secondly, it was experimental with the car coming out of the frame.

 

I am of course glad to have sold a painting, and the money has gone towards a couple of days at the beach for my family, but I also feel a little sad to split the collection.

 

There is a flatness and an un-nerving feeling that I cannot quite understand.  I think that however much I create in the hope of others enjoying I am not actually emotionally ready for them to be in someone elses home, for other people to wake up to them.
