...SO... I think you win in the trading category! <br /><br />I have traded other artists for work, it is usually the only way I could afford to "collect" art. The trades have been mostly with close friends and to me these are the special works that I now own and enjoy on the regular. I think of them as stand-in for these friends and fellow artists... you know I can make some tea walk by the art say hi. Its nice to have the little reminders of the people that live far away.Jennifer Barnett Henselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10992559619533216828noreply@blogger.com
