Just this past Friday I celebrated the sale of my first non-commissioned painting.  I woke up this morning to see that this pelican is also going to be flying out to his new home in Maine this week.  :-)

These two sales meant a lot to me.  I love making art, but it can be really discouraging to see your paintings start collecting dust.  It is so nice to feel appreciated and supported. 

Thanks for everyone who has encouraged me with my artwork!
