SNOW Sold

 The piece in the previous post, SNOW, was sold in the silent auction at the Bennington Museum, bringing in $1,651, of which I will get half. I'm a bit sad to not see it anymore (as I didn't have it in the studio that long before delivering it to the museum), but people often ask me if I'm distressed about having work sold and gone. The answer is "No! My artwork is a bit like my children, and we want our children to grow up, possess their own lives, and make their way in the world, not keep them exclusively tethered to us." I make work for the world, and am delighted when it finds its way to a new home.

Have a look at my new website, and the images of all the pieces in this series of People: https://www.janetvanfleet.com/people There are new ones coming along all the time!
