Complements.

One of the most important things that you can do is to learn to accept the fact that your collectors and buyers do not see your failings they only see you the Artist and your work.

We need also to see ourselves as the Artist and not see all our failings and weaknesses, because if we are wise we will be working on them and overcoming those liabilities and getting better and better every day.

Accepting the fact that you are an Artist will make such a big difference the next time you are approached by a collector or buyer.

Your attitude about yourself is reflected in how you respond to those who admire your work, do not be to humble and say it is nothing and even joke about it, when someone says that your work is wonderful, say thank you and look them in the eye as you say it and take that as permission to talk to them about your work.

You deserve the complements, you work hard and your paintings reflect that, just smile and say,

“ Thank you so much, yes I did this, may I tell you about my painting.”
