I call these folks patrons.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s a patron? Someone who supports a person, an activity, an institution. Patrons come in many shapes and forms, and are universally appreciated by those they champion.<\/p>\n<p>Just last week, someone whom I would consider a patron, contacted me and asked about commissioning a new painting to accompany a pair of my paintings she already owned. Based on the description of what she was looking for, I determined that I already had on hand at least seven paintings in the desired theme and format.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pauseworks.com\/patkatzartwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/15x7-Options-Trio-w.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-1615\" src=\"https:\/\/pauseworks.com\/patkatzartwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/15x7-Options-Trio-w-216x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pauseworks.com\/patkatzartwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/15x7-Options-Trio-w-216x300.jpg 216w, https:\/\/pauseworks.com\/patkatzartwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/15x7-Options-Trio-w-144x200.jpg 144w, https:\/\/pauseworks.com\/patkatzartwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/15x7-Options-Trio-w.jpg 432w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 216px) 100vw, 216px\" \/><\/a>I shared the details and images with her electronically.
