A good market

Congratulations on a good day of sales, @John B

Just out of curiosity, do the portraits of iconic stars like Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, and Den Martin
sell very well any more? I'm just curious. It seems there are still John Wayne fans everywhere
that admire portraits of him but, not sure they will still buy very often.

God Bless! Spirithorse

Great display. Glad you had a good day, you deserve it after all that work. Beautiful !!

 

Thanks Brenda, My daughter, who makes jewellery and shares the stall, also had a great day.
I sell only one or two portraits each market, but the puzzles etc, walk away.

Great display John.  You actually have a John Wayne that I have never seen before, that is a miracle. :lol:  Fabulous looking work.

Thanks MArg, I was pretty excited when I found it. It is actually a stencil that I had to do only a little work on to make it into a pattern

Thanks Bob,
The Duke and Elvis sell pretty well, I even get rid of a couple of Audrey Hepburn ones a year. As Marilyn Munroe, I have never sold one and wouldn't of even cut her, but a friend asked me to and then "I never really wanted her, just thought she'd look god cut" so there you go.
Dean Martin, I cut one for my brother in-law and stacked 3, I sold the 1st time I displayed him, but I have had this one for almost a year.
On the whole, I think the portraits have slowed down, but I refuse to give them away, so if I sell one, It can make a huge difference to the day's takings.
