Hi all,
I'd love some help with an interpretation here. To give a little background to the situation, I was recently asked to consign some artworks to a prominent art dealer who had wanted to present the work to a corporate client. I felt very sure at first that she would sell some of the work just based on her attitude and the number she took verses the number of artworks she claimed these clients would be buying. Also, the clients saw some images of the work ahead of time, and they wanted to see them in person. So the gallery and art dealer presented the work to them last week. The art dealer informed me that I would probably know pretty quickly whether they sold the work or not. She thought maybe as early as the day after the presentation. Now it has been 6 days, and I am getting really anxious, because I have not heard anything at all. I am unemployed right now so was really hoping to sell the work and have a little cushion. The only thing that I can think is that maybe the client is still deciding. There is also the possibility that she is pitching them to another client, because she did mention that there was another potential buyer.
I asked, "What is the likelihood that X will sell some of the drawings she took from me on consignment in the coming weeks? The answer was 63.5.6
This could be a big turning point for my career, because if she sells the work I think she will want to continue to work with me. Her gallery is very respected, so this is kind of a big deal on several levels.
To the best of my knowledge, this reading is saying something like don't rest on your laurels or assume it is done? I am not really sure how to interpret it, especially considering that there is nothing else I can do in this situation. I have already created the work and given it to her, so not sure what to make of this.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
