Camera club had a showing at the local Art Center/Gallery - I had 8 photos displayed, and all for sale. We had a 'Meet the artists" reception and I was approached by a (very) elderly lady using a walker.. (80++ yrs old). She said that she loved the colors of this specific photo, and would be interested in purchasing it. She stated it would match her living room decor perfectly, but can't get it until her SSA comes in at the end of the month... Not a problem, and I ordered it from the lab.
10/30 I delivered it to her home.... a very cluttered, disorganized living room, and my first thought was "Eccentric".. She had me hang it on her wall, and commented how lovely it was, and then gave me a check for payment in full..... Then .... she turned into a raging lion of a business woman !! She stated that she had a website project and brochure project going for Physical Therapists, and my photograph will make a beautiful background for both ... She then whipped out her cell phone and showed me an image of my photo already on her phone, with all the logo's and type already designed. Apparently she showed up at the gallery and took a cell phone shot of my photograph, and used photoshop to design this brochure! She predicted that the brochures will reach over 10,000 therapists ... and the website is almost ready to go. Then, just as sudden, she thanked me for coming over and delivering the photo, turned around, and - using her walker - shuffled slowly off down the hall stating she had to take her medicine.
Did I just get 'drop kicked' by an old lady ??
