Exactly. Art was booming in those days before the crash. There was just so much money around it as like one big endless party and no one thought it was ever going to end. I teach part time and I have one or two private buyers but what really saved me was that I bought a small restaurant with my savings and it had boomed. Instead of art people are comforting themselves with good food . As for Art it+s heart has died somewhat and whether it will ever return I have my doubts. Thanks for responding.
