Thanks for your thoughtful comment! Not so long ago, we had an exhibition of work from an artist who's an established and regionally quite famous sculptor. Except, this was an exhibit of his Japanese style watercolor paintings. If view in consideration that this was a famous and established artist... the show bombed. On the other hand, viewed from the angle of a newcomer watercolorist, the show did quite well. We only sold one single small painting to someone who even *knew* the artist's work... It was a very eye opening illustration of how much it matters-- at least from the commercial end of things--to be "known for something."
