Sweet Story 1
A woman called me about a commission. She knew my work through her parents and she wanted a sanderlings painting. She told me she was preparing to have IVF treatment and wanted something positive and peaceful to look at. I completed the commission and mailed it to her. I didn’t hear any follow-up until one day at The Fringe Fine Art Gallery her parents paid a visit. Their daughter underwent multiple unsuccessful IVF treatments. She and her husband decided to not pursue further treatment, and yet months later they conceived. Her parents proudly shared photos of their beautiful grandson with me and I couldn’t have been happier for them all. Is it possible a painting can make a tiny difference?
My first post about my art.
I look forward to telling you some funny stories about the “behind the scenes” world of my art.
