*SOLD*
I'm still a bit shattered after the village Christmas fair but very happy to report that I sold four paintings, one of which you can see above. It shows a row of terrace houses on the main road through the village, the first few houses known as Pendre, but often collectively named Crown Row, after the former temperance inn in the middle - the one with a red-painted canopy.
It was a successive event for all concerned, I think, and helped to raise a lot of money for charity.
Selling paintings of local interest was definitely the way to go, in this instance, especially pre-Christmas, as they made original gifts. Having declared that, I was sad not to have sold any of my art cards of prints of the paintings. What do I do with them now?

Oh, my, Gillian,
This is lovely. I love sketching buildings in a row like this; just wish mine turned out as well as yours.

Congratulations on your sales Gillian
Another quality painting from a quality artist!
Well done on the sales, Gillian. Keep the cards for a market stall one day.
Dear Gillian,
Congrats!! The work is so lovely. Sure it has got wonderful step-parents!
Cheers,Sadami
Congradulations on your show and sales! And keep the cards for another show.
Congratulations, dear Gillian! Use the art cards as gifts, my friend! This painting is so lovely!
Lovely painting, well done for the sales it was certainly the right way to go. You could put the cards in with your artwork when you sell it as a little 'extra', they will always be useful for your future shows!
Put your cards on Etsy or for a one time ad without having to become a business try here. Jessica is trying to start up a classified ads spot for those who make. I think it's free right now or if that timeframe has passed it will be a low price and you can do a one-time thing to see if anyone bites. I don't know how this site will hold up but some people have already advertised there. Good luck.
Glad you sold some paintings!
Thank you to everyone for your kind comments and suggestions. x
Congrats on the sales! This painting is charming!

Wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Yearʚ(ˆ◡ˆ)ɞ
