Steve and Lisa came to Narae's Art Show, in hopes of finding just the right painting for Iris for her birthday.
There was quite the crowd when they arrived, and he saw that his brother and Leona were there too....

Steve and Lisa made their way around the Gallery, then noticed a painting over on the other wall.
"I really I like that one over there. Let's go over and take a better look."
"I really I like that one over there. Let's go over and take a better look."
Steve and Lisa agreed, they both loved the painting, and thought Iris would as well.
But just to confirm their decision, Steve asked for Leona's opinion, since she would know her own sister's taste better than anyone.... "Oh yes, that one is gorgeous!!"
"So this is the one you'd like to take? It's definitely one of my favourites."
"Yes, please! Lisa and I were looking for a birthday present for her Mom,
and we both think she would love this painting..."

So Maya took the painting and wrapped it up for them.
"Thanks so much! It's been a pleasure! We love your work, and think you'll do really well!"

"No, Thank You!! Thanks for coming and buying one of my paintings!
I hope Iris has a wonderful birthday!"

And as Steve and Lisa left, Maya started to haul off the empty easel....
"Another empty easel!! Soon there won't be any more space in the back storeroom.
But I guess that's a good thing."

Asa and Her Kids
Byuri was so excited to have her Mom and brother come to Narae's Art Show...
"Look! There's the painting she did of me and my friends!! You have to buy it!!""
"It's wonderful, Byuri, and I'll get it, but I'd like to look around at all the other paintings too..."
Byuri was anxious someone else would buy her painting, and wished her Mom would hurry up.
"I guess that one's okay too..."
"I guess that one's okay too..."
Her Mom really liked the painting of Moraine Lake...
"I love this one! Remember when we all went to the Rockies, and how beautiful it was there?"
But Byuri was getting very restless.

After completing the sale to Steve, Narae went over to Asa and her kids, who seemed very interested in one of the paintings....
"Is there something I could help you with?"
"My Mom wants to buy that painting over there - the one with me and my friends!!"
"The one those other people are looking at..."
Knowing that the painting she wanted was going to come home with her, Byuri could finally relax.
"These look yummy!"
"These look yummy!"
"I'd like this painting of Moraine Lake as well..."
Maya took the paintings and wrapped them...
"This one's mine!!"
"And this one is the mountain scene."
"Your paintings are wonderful, and I'm so glad I had the opportunity to purchase two of them.
Byuri has been telling us so much about you. She just loved the art classes."

"Well, Byuri has been a real joy to have in my class."
"I hope you can join us again next time."
Paige & Angela
Narae had invited Paige to her Show, but then someone came and interrupted their conversation.
So Paige helped herself to a cupcake and looked around to see if there was anyone else there that she knew...

Angela was busy talking to Lisa, who was with her Dad....
"Hi!! I was hoping you'd be here!"
"Yeah, I came with my Mom, and she wants to maybe buy a painting.....but she's taking forever to decide..."
"Well, there's cupcakes and other treats over there..."
So she took one....while her Mom continued to look at all the paintings....
Then she found a chair to sit on, while her Mom looked, and looked....
And looked some more....
I had to step out for a while, and when I came back they were gone, and there seemed to be a few more paintings missing as well, so maybe she did decide on one after all.
Tired, but Happy
Finally, the show was over and everyone was gone. Narae was exhausted.
She pulled up a chair, took one of the last few treats, and poured herself the last of the wine....

"Well, that's it. My first Art Show is over."
"You did really well today! Almost everything sold."
"Yes we did. It was wonderful seeing how much everyone liked my paintings.
And I really appreciate all your help today. I couldn't have done it all by myself."

"No problem! I was happy to help. It was a lot of fun!"
