My painting "Pointer" whose story is below, recently sold. This painting is the first that went to complete strangers, and my husband and I had mixed feelings about its sale. I knew some details about the couple, but Larry Elder of Elder Galleries, in Charlotte, did not give me their names.
My sister is a professor at U of Florida, and one day when she was walking with a fellow professor, she told the woman about the painting, describing the couple as I had described them to her and as Larry Elder had described them to me. My sister's friend said, "I know them. They're friends of mine." She told me about the couple, and now I feel like I have "placed" the painting with friends. My goal is to get invited to dinner at their house so I can see my painting hanging in their dining room!
