“So far we have sold 4 items at Gotcha Jeans in Olds and a larger piece to a lady from Red Deer who was visiting the Innisfail Library where WVANA has a great collective display of art from many involved with this year’s ArtWalk. The lady who bought our piece of stained glass which was on display at the library is coming tomorrow to pick it up.

“Gotcha Jeans also indicated today that they have given out many of our business cards to folks who are very interested in getting hold of us for commission work.”

Bob and Flory Wilkins create beautiful work in stained glass. While they were setting up their ArtWalk display at Gotcha Jeans one of the staff saw one of their pieces and said, “It’s sold!”

“The employee was gracious enough to put a ‘SOLD’ sign on it, and leave it in the display cabinet until we bring something else to replace it,” says Bob. “But that adds interest and hopefully will generate more sales.”

The Wilkins’ make many whimsical items, such as the abstract cat in this photo. “We use a Black/White Clear Baroque glass,” says Bob, “and, as each sheet of this glass it totally one of a kind and unique, it allows us to make some pretty neat pictures.”
