Dark Man was sold at the Austin Community College Art Students' sale (where I did quite well, thank you). He didn't go for a while, probably because he sat there so quiently, not speaking to anyone. Then, on the second day, Linda spotted him and saw the magic in him and he became hers. At first I wasn't sure I liked him but he's the sort of piece that just grows on you and you realize after he's gone that he had a real presence. Linda emailed me that she's really happy about having him and that makes me feel better.
More about Washington DC to come, as soon as my Blog Wrangler downloads her pictures.

I like how his body turned out. Great, rich colors. I wish I could've made it to the show.
He certainly does have a presence. If I had been at the show I would have brought quite a few home. It's a lovely surprise when a piece grows on you. So many times I've hated a totem and might even have chopped him up for firewood except my husband said, someone will love him. I hide him in a corner for 2 weeks and when I look again I find that he's grown on me. Sometimes (most times) one just needs a little space. It's like spending too long pent up in the house with a bored spouse ;-)
I like him and not at all surprised that he sold!!
I like 'dark' and 'quiet' and so this would suit me very well
