Yesterday I spent time walking a wonderful art show in Cape Coral Florida

Yesterday I spent time walking a wonderful art show in Cape Coral Florida. It’s a huge show with 300 juried exhibitors and over 100,000 potential buyers attending. As I scanned the crowd it appeared that less than 1 in a hundred were carrying something they bought. I told my wife to imagine how much more artwork would have been sold if the booths would have been filled with artwork created specifically for each person attending. Artwork of their pet, their grandchild, or their hotrod.

I love my Bengal cat. My wife complains that I kiss the cat more than I kiss her. Do you think I could have walked by a booth that had a painting of my cat without buying it? Not likely.

Even though this was a super successful show and I’m sure some artists did well, most of them left that show with a truckload of unsold work. Even on this site there is risk that you will do the work and the person won’t buy it, but the odds are astronomical higher than creating general artwork that may or may not appeal to a buyer.

Looking to have this done for my boss….not real sure what medium would be best, open to cool options that make it look best…something on canvas would be ideal

I have added the wooden fenceposts along the treeline, a few more tracks in the snow, and a little more detail in the grass.

The pastel painting is completed unless some minor adjustments are suggested by the person whom I painted it for. The painting is 16×20 and is painted on a sanded pastel board. Pastels do require framing with glass to protect them You can frame them with or without mats.

Changes can still be made so if there is anything you would like changed let me know and I will see what I can do.

Thanks for your consideration!
