My first art sale


It was always the same when Roger called. He would flood my phone with missed calls and voice mails just because I was not able to pick up my phone on time. Only this time it is about my art works. The business has expanded and they have acquired the rest of the office spaces on the same floor. He would like to dress up the new office with oil paintings from various artists, including the famous Jack Ting. The greatest surprise is he would like to buy a few of my paintings. He set his eyes on two:Traveller’s Lodge and Chinatown Junction. I couldn't believe my luck. This is my first sale and my first cheque. I am truly grateful for his appreciation. I am inspired to continue painting. My dream will be one day my work will reach out to a bigger public and a truly successful public exhibition. Dream is always sweet. Hopefully it will come through
