You can be your normal adorable self, ask people lots of questions about themselves, maybe wear a gigantic button that says "Why YES! I AM the ARTIST!" Too much? Okay, so never mind about the button. I always approach selling like I'm going to go help someone do what they already wanted to do. I don't know who that person is in advance, so my job is just to figure out who already wants to buy, and help them do what they already want to do. It will be fun, like being a detective! Good luck!
