Reflections of the Summer 2023 Just Before Our Last Show

 

On August 11 we will be our very last show of the summer in Oakmont before everyone heads off to college. We are so grateful to everyone who came out and supported TTA and MX Sisters Creations this summer. It was great meeting everyone, and some of our fellow artists became like family. :) 

  Thank you, especially to those who bought prints and paintings.

Wings (Sold)

Owl Eye (Sold) and Apple Seller (Prints Available)

There is a lot we learned this year. First, we should not spend $250 on prints! Several people asked for a print of Apple Seller, pictured above right, but then did not end up actually purchasing the prints we made. We ended up only selling one, and they are so delicate it is terrifying each time we move them. We had hoped to get them with a cardboard backing from the printer, but that was not possible at the time we ordered them. Because we sold two paintings at the most recent Garfield night market, we almost broke even.

Bird Skull

Stickers... Those little things we thought would sell well... just didn't. 

Head with Flowers

Hannah's designs are so cute, and it is such an awesome way to get a tiny piece of original artwork for such a reasonable price. 

Flower Face

Whether these little gems were simply too expensive, or they were not a vibe, I'm not sure. Our cost for these die-cut art stickers was very high, so we had to price them accordingly. 

We ended up cutting our prices by over half on some items, taking a loss on some, to get them sold. It is sad, but we know the people who bought the art will enjoy it, and that is the best sort of return on investment.

We hope to see you at our last night market in Oakmont, PA, Friday, August 11, from 5 to 9 pm. We will be leaving on the very next morning to drive across the state to move into the dorm.

We hope to see you this Friday night, August 11, in Oakmont! We will be there with Jazz' homemade soaps and candles, Mash's awesome live sketches, and of course Hannah's art, prints, and sculpted jewelry.
