Someone (serious) wanted to purchase my Mother Caribbean painting but like https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> I never priced it because I never thought I& #39;d want to let it go. She was like "don& #39;t be shy just call your price" sksks I told her I& #39;ll quote her in a couple days so she ended up buying a print until https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen">

This other guy came and told me he needed a custom painting the same size. I was letting him know the prices for other (smaller) sizes and showing him my work and he was like " you don& #39;t have to sell to me..

..I know your work and I know you& #39;re capable. Price don& #39;t matter just quote me. I& #39;ll be leaving in November, is it possible to get it before then?"

Someone that works for a publisher of a Caribbean books wanted an illustrator. I was ready to give her deets of someone that does digital art because that& #39;s not my field but then she said "no no we need YOUR portraits, we can just scan them and add them in our books. We really...

haven& #39;t seen much people from the region that paints faces like you" AYOOOOO
She came directly to my booth to propose the job to me specifically and I almost thought I wasn& #39;t capable?! I will never do that again https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">
