Thanks, Maisie. Marilyn got much praise from so many people yesterday, I was really pleased (but do feel slightly embarrassed)
However, nobody liked it enough to buy it. I was asking £30 for it, in a nice pewter coloured frame but no takers. The last time we had an exhibition I had done a Kirk Douglas and another member of the art group bought it ( I wanted £25 for that one which wasn't quite as big as Marilyn.)
One other massive boost to my confidence ...................... my son went along in the morning (no-one knows him there) and he heard some folks talking and saying that my portraits are better than Steve's and Steve is a professional artist.
