First Sale

My friend and I recently submitted paintings to a local museum. We attended the opening last night and had a blast. There was music, dancing, and food. Guests were allowed to walk through the gallery and admire the artwork, as well as bid silently on the art pieces that we submitted.

We also agreed to allow our art pieces to be up for auction at the show, receiving no profit ourselves. All proceeds would go to the museum if the piece was sold. I am happy to say that my painting, as well as my friend's painting, both sold! Even though we didn't get the money ourselves, we can still say that we finally sold our first painting!
