A letter from Jan 04, 2025

Dear Claire When you read this, you will have sold your painting of the London Plane-tree for £2000. You will be getting a commission every month worth £500 and you’ll be selling every original off the easel as you paint it. It’s time for you to consider becoming a full-time artist, and perhaps you may already be supplementing a full-time Artist income with a couple of side jobs. What is certain is that you will be the most successful and prolific artist you have ever been, and you will be doing your dream job and making more money from it than even doing anything else. Claire,
