And so we are into 2019.
It has been a very complex year, what I mean with complex is
that I cannot say it’s been a good year or an average year with all the ups and
downs I had this year!
The art market was incredibly busy the first six months of
2018 and them ... we hit a slam! The winter months (for us in South Africa) mid
June & July were slow in sales,
maybe because of a very volatile economy with more ups and downs than any other
year that I remember, winter was an all time low in art sales! Nevertheless, all in all I sold 72 paintings in
2018 and had quite a lot of commissions done!
Another highlight in 2018 was my new website, very easy to
navigate and I can up-date it myself!
Come to think of it, I would say it was a wonderful year!
Now looking forward to the new year 2019, it looks very
promising, according to the economists and business people, with lots of Art
sales and Exhibitions coming up
throughout the year.
My dear friends and collectors don’t forget to visit my
website, Facebook and Instagram pages to
keep up with new work that becomes available every so often. Thank you for your time and may 2019 be a
prosperous and eventful year for All!
