It's hot and what the heck.

Today a lady came into the gallery asking about a painting...Lady says...."it's a oil pastel and you had it years ago on the wall". Anything else you can tell us about this "painting that we had years ago and should remember?"....it's hot and there are days like this.

Having worked in retail, I can relate, the public can ask some strange questions; one I remember was" how far will this marker go"

After that person came in we had another with this question "So....did you make EVERYTHING in here?".
We refrain from saying..."Why yes, look at us...we can paint, sculpt, make pots AND jewelry! All this while working at the gallery! Now thinking about it....this does happen on hot days, maybe it is heat stroke.
