Outdoor Art Show and Music Festival with GalleryNorth. I attended the outdoor art show held at Gallery North. It's my first experience selling it on a table outdoors. And it was a precious time to meet people who love painting more closely. It's always a great pleasure for me to see people who love painting and their clear eyes and souls. Even as a painter who sells paintings, there are always secret concerns and difficulties. It will be in any field. I'm worried what if my painting isn't worth the money. I'm also worried that people might have bought my paintings with the money they would have bought for something else. I wonder if my paintings can bring happiness, joy, and comfort to people the way I want them to. There is a Korean poet who wrote this artist's heart into poetry. His poetry is written in Korean, so I tried to translate it into English a little bit to make it easier to understand. ‘Positive thoughts about rice’ by Ham Min-bok If it's thirty thousand won for a poem (note: won is korean currency and it worth to around 1400 dollar in this time) Even if I want to be too stingy (note: He thinks that it's too cheap.) If I think that the price is two Mal of rice, (note; Mal means that it is a unit of measurement of volume, and one Mal has a volume of about 18 liters. It is also called two (斗). One Mal is ten, and ten Mal are one Sum. ) In no time, my heart becomes like warm rice 3,000 won for a book of poetry Even if I want to be loose compared to my sincerity One bowl of soup My poetry collection is as big as a bowl of soup Can my book warm people's hearts? Thinking about it, I'm still far away If a book of poetry is sold I get three hundred won back Even though I thought it was a loss When I think of a drop of coarse salt I have no heart to be hurt like the blue sea Source: Senior Daily (http://www.seniormaeil.com) I would like to express my sincere thanks to the painting lovers who bought my paintings today. Thanks to you, I think I will be able to draw with a more sincere heart in the future. This will make my art world deeper and richer. This is my promise to everyone who bought my paintings today.
