Love this series. The color combination was so tricky today! The illustration looks so lovely though. I want to do one too. How did you choose the colors for your challenge? Was it a palette or your whole collection?

I like how you did the shading in the trees. The sky is tricky for me. I think leaving it blank was best.

I am unsure if it has been repainted. It depends on the conditions of how it was kept in, it could just be where the paint is wearing away.

I do like the paintings a lot and the frames are all good too, they look amazing,however I feel you would have benefitted from the advice of a master framer who would have been experienced in choosing the right matte to complement your work and make them look even better. I do not think this would have affected sales though, anyone buying would be free to remount them anyway. Your work is lovely in its own right. It’s a big deal exhibiting for the first time, glad you enjoyed the experience. Maybe you will have got some feedback about which of them got the best response, and you could make commercial print run of them, a home printer is not the same there are some very good deals around and some printers will allow you to split the print run. Even half size they would look lovely.

I did ask how it went and the owner of the cafe said everyone enjoyed them. She didn't say if there was a "popular" one. I think also positioning might have been a thing too. Some were near the seating area, some were by the counter and some were kind of randomly placed but they were space out well.
