Summer Splash

Today my friends and I showed our artwork publicly in CoRK East. The show went over relatively well- there was enough art in terms of wall to painting ratio, though some of the quality of presentation was weak. Also, the bottom fell out beginning in the morning, we had periodic rain showers throughout the day. I slept through four hours of the opening. I had not slept in preparation for the event, my sleep schedule remains untethered. I enjoyed showing my work. I hung five paintings at a time. I met Jess, Cassia, and John early in the afternoon. Cassia told me that one of my paintings was her favorite. I told her that she should take it home with her. She asked how much I wanted for it. I told her what was important was that she have her painting. She took out what I later found to be thirty five dollars and handed it to me. "I feel like I should pay more", she said.
I'm happy that she has her painting.
