“I got my first commission! Back in December, a lady I met at the art trail contacted me about doing a couple commissions for her. We met and agreed on a concept, she chose the colors and size (4’x5′) for the first one. I just delivered it to her a couple weeks ago and she loved it and definitely wants a second one. I wanted to say thank you so much for inviting me to the art trail and I can’t wait for next year.”
