I was tempted to hang onto this painting, but a wise friend reminded me what I’ve always said, that I need to move my work out of the studio and into the world. Partly because that is the whole point. Also because if I keep looking at favorite completed work, it tends to narrow my choices as I go forward, the antithesis of what I want in these freedom paintings. So this one is up for sale on eBay.
"She's Crazy for It," a new abstract painting by Genie Maples
You can bid for this painting here. The starting bid was $49. As I type this, it stands at $172.
I think this is my most successful painting ever.
I hope the bids go high, of course. Babies got to eat. But the important thing is that I completed a very, very good painting, someone will enjoy it for a long time, and I will make money so I can keep doing this.
I could not ask for a better life. Generosity all around. There is nothing better.
