Inspired rejection

Following an email reply from Sothebys saying...

"Dear Dave,

Thank you for your email.
Unfortunately we are unable to sell your work sat auction as we are a secondary market and your work has not been sold at auction before.
All the best,
Tara"

I painted this...

After you sell at a smaller auction, you can try again. It's true that they sell work on the secondary market.

Hi
I apologise for not initially crediting Laika who educated me to Albert Willem's work which inspired me to send pictures to Sotheby's in the first place.

Actually, the credit goes to to well-known member john! I saw his link to an article about Mr Willem and immediately thought, "hey, that's straight out of the Dave Woody playbook!" We need to discover how he (Willem) got in the public eye, then surely Sotheby's will follow!

Thanks everyone.
I've emailed mr albert willem too, just a little tickle of a missive.
His work, my work, Creative Spark and... did not send any images, kept it short and hopefully interesting enough that he might reply.
