A great day for drawing, just zero sales
Being a shopkeeper has sales needs to pay your bills. Today no good news on that side, however I had a good time hosting 8 people doing art for fun and at 230 participants in shop year 2 the figures are already edging towards 3 months ahead of the year 1 figures.
So, the first drawing – a young man who was very clear when gp he had finished.

I worked on a drawing of my son Charlie at a talk at work about water safety, I gifted him the drawing later.

Then a regular young girl without her brother and his usual Minecraft creeper drawings, I was introduced to Shopkin – that was a new term for me, I chose to try drawing it too and gifted my drawing.

I then started to try a drawing of a traction engine based on a still from a friend’s video – also gifted later in the day and I was pleased with how it went.

Two regulars – mum and son. O got cold so we ended up with him in two of my jackets which absolutely swamped him but kept him warm.



I did two boating pics based on the club dinghy I sail the most a RS Feva X-LARGE and then one of a friend kayaking with dolphins.


Two sisters joined me for some drawing and also 3 of a local family I have hosted many times and two of the children have drawn with me at their primary school too.




I got to draw 6 pieces, I got to gift several of them on the day to participants or local friends, several new people tried art for fun as well as repeat visitors.
Ok no sales but I had a fun days drawing and that’s what counts too.
