$5,500 Art Sold in One Day!

As predicted, the Lake Country Art Gallery Under 100 show opened with a bang yesterday. Unfortunately I had seven other events to skid round, so I didnt make it out there, but I’m hoping to go soon.

$5,500 worth of paintings were sold, which is pretty amazing considering they were all under $100. My One Finger Drawings Shimmering Heat and The Marina found new homes and every artist that has sold two or more by Sunday evening opening can submit more work next week, so I’m in! I’m amazed I sold more than two legends of the local scene, Tina Siddiqui and Kara Barkvad, so I must be doing something right.

The stars as always were Jolene Mackie and Margaret Kyle. Speaking to different audiences, Jolene has the young crowd and Margaret has been a top local instuctor for many years and has a large grey fox following. I’m pleased to say that my friends Sharlene McNeill, Maud Besson, Sheila Tansy and June Seed made some sales.

I thought you’d be interested in seeing what sold and check out the artists, so I’ve compiled a list. The titles and media give you an idea of what the buyers chose. I suggest googling their names and Okanagan or Lake Country and their blogs or websites should appear, so you can visit their web presence.

My sale at Artfinder continues with new work added daily, so take a peek and feedback is always welcome. artfinder.com/sea-dean
