Greeting cards

Ron decided to make some greeting cards with my art on them.  I love the strip he put around them with my name and a big "H" on it (my nickname).  I love my older style art, with its vibrant colours and contemporary images.   Some of the art I am not too fond of, but some advice from a very good mentor at the moment, Louise Piromalli, was " it doesn't matter what you like or don't like, you are not selling art that pleases you, but others."  She sells her husband's amazing art at the Blue Palm Tree markets......check it out.......theartsideofdreams.com.


I put the cards in a palm seed pod that Ron had made a while ago.  A beautiful elongated type pod that we use as a centre piece on our dining table with paper balls (which my son Rain enjoys throwing all over the place).  Well........I was approached on Saturday at the markets regarding the pod and whether I wanted to sell it.......and sold it for $20.00!  You never know what you will sell!!
