T o all art people...

 Do you find when you do art stalls on art markets people just gawp like cows chewing the cud and move on.  I didnt sell NOTHING again. and the stalls either side of me sold nothing nor did they guy opposite!  infact MOST people sold NOTHING, despite a range of fashion, photography , prints and originals on sale.   You know what I think it is?   people are happy to buy mass produced items, but ask them to buy something unique and handmade?  no they  feel uneasy.   They are being asked to think for themselves and define their own tastes. be an individual.
   the guy selling hand turned wooden vases joked he should put a Marks and Spencers logo on his pots and people would buy them then.

I think people mostly go to art fairs to feel cultured and then talk about how they'd just *love* that painting if it went nicely with their couch.
