Persepolis - Sold!

As is true with most people I know, checking email is a regular habit. One purpose is for personal exchanges, and the other is for my digital art "business." A lot of my artwork are custom orders for pet portraits through my Esty shop - LITDigitalPaintings. But I also have paintings that represent my favorite past time and the things I like to sketch. Some of those items are people, animals or fish, but several are travelogue types. A few are from England, or Copenhagen, but one series is from Iran. We saw so many wonderful places there when we visited five years ago. One of the scenes that gets the most attention is the women on the steps of Persepolis. It was included in the art show at the Library of Congress where I work, and someone bought a copy there. In July, someone bought a copy on my Etsy site. Today when I checked my email, there was a notice that another one was sold. What makes these purchases nice is that I have already uploaded the image and the buyer just needs to make a copy of the digital image. I don't need to do anything more - except send a thank you note for noticing my shop and selecting an image I created. I've had my Etsy shop for three years. I always find it exciting when someone thinks enough of my work to want either a custom portrait or a painting I made. It's a lovely hobby and gives me a great reason to check my email. Stop by and visit my shop!
