Description

Yesterday I bought a new set of Oil colors. I decided to put up a 12 x 16 canvas so I can test the look. I was pleased by the way the colors behaved. I did not plan to upload it up here on Fine Art America; but the little painting kept on talking to me to give it a chance among other works online. I was so touched I quickly decided to give it a chance to be see.

This reminded me of my Art Teacher of long ago. He used to tell me that when I am ready to start selling my work to the world I should let it go. He told me that sometimes you work for money, and sometimes for nothing. He said; “let art go to the world, don’t keep your work under lock and key, believing that one day the world will discover you and get mesmerized, nope, let it go.”

I thought he was joking. At my age now, I believe him {God rest his soul). Let it go! Art belongs to the world for a pay or nothing. Most of the time it is that nothing that eventually becomes something that you get to eat and enjoy your talent in this world. Let people see your work.

I am always very touched when someone from a very far away country buys even a tote bag from my work on FAA. If I didn’t post it up here. How in the world would that guy I might never meet have bought that T-shirt, that wall hanging or that Canvas print?

Let it goo…..
