30. 10. 08. Thursday. I finished painting Les Negociants 2 yesterday and sent it out to the usual suspects as proof that I’m still alive and well and painting over here. I had an enquiry last evening as to size and price etc and then this morning an e mail telling me that it was sold!!! Amazing, I only wish I could sell all my paintings this quickly. Thanks again Fran and Clive for your support.
