PAW18 – Day Two

Well, an early start today. Not intentionally but woke at 04:00 and never managed to get back to sleep. Having this sort of view makes it a joy. Early thundery showers cleared and the day became absolutely gorgeous and definitely a beach day so I as not surprised to see no people for a long time. Just before lunch I received a visit from Sarah of Ten and Six (also trades at Purbeck Artisan Yard, Wareham). Great to show my studio to a fellow collective artisan.

This morning I had made a new cardboard sign like last year’s to encourage visits and dog owners, well that was the theory.

Then this afternoon I suddenly had a visit from a group out walking and there were 15 people in the studio, no purchases but it was great to host more people. Finally I had a repeat visit from a couple who came yesterday. They selected Looking Up At Wintery Sky as a print and some cards then changed to have the original, much to my pleasant surprise. I was able to frame the picture to match a Hungry Hare Print they already have. Now I have d-rings and picture cord I was able to make their piece ready to hang.

Also today I drew a dip pen and drawing ink piece of the studio too.

So a great end to day two.

Current bestselling card is “Looking East” with 3 sold.

More news tomorrow.
