Went to a local art exhibition over the weekend. There was a striking watercolour of a peacock that I was interested in. I said to myself “I’ll come back Sunday afternoon to buy it” but I completely forgot. Although, casting my mind back, it may have already been sold.
I didn’t say anything at the time as I was worried that they’d take the picture down right then and there. But thinking about it now, they probably would’ve kept it on display until the end of the exhibition, and the buyer could just pick it up afterwards. That’s probably what the little orange dot on the artist’s name card indicated. Something to remember next time I’m buying art during an exhibition.
