If I produce a piece of artwork that I personally don't like, I'd NEVER EVER let anyone have it...my fear is that they might "show it around" as an example of my skill!

A couple of years back, I let a friend twist my arm and I donated a small "not-so-great" watercolor to an auction (for a very good cause). And to my embarassment it sold for $200...weeks later that darn thing was keeping me awake at night.

I ended up contacting the buyer and paying DOUBLE to get it back so I could hide it in the "circular file."
