Play It Again, Sam, For Carnival ah!

It's that time of year again. On Tuesday, April 12, from 9-5, I will be at Austin Community College's Rio Grande campus to participate in the Annual Student Art Sale (Carnival ah!).

The small vase (about 5" tall) above will be on my For Sale table.  Some of what I'm selling will be what I consider not-so-good pieces and some will be really-great pieces, but obviously the final decision is always up to the viewer.  Every year I'm surprised by the number of not-so-good pieces that sell right away and by the unsold really-great pieces I bring home (and will take back the next year).

In a side note, take a look at two of the public pianos we have available for your playing pleasure.  Susan tried to explain to me how to find Middle-C so that I could play the one song I know ("My Dog Has Fleas") but I just couldn't figure it out. My career as a musician is definitely not getting off the ground.

I'm with Robyn, I wish I could come to your art sale- I used to do art fairs years ago and I remember the same phenom-- my least favorite paintings selling first and my favorite ones coming home- can be goofy I know.
