Should I leave it be or call again?
Hi -
I am not sure what to do next. Here's the situation:
Back in February, I put a painting up as a sample at a charity auction for out local art museum. The winner was to get a portrait of their choice. An older woman paid with the idea that her painting would be of her grandaughter. The child's mom came by to see the sample painting after the auction, but it was obvious that this was grandma's idea, and not hers. When I asked who I should be talking to for final decisions, she said firmly that she was the one. I made an appointment for a photo shoot. When I got there, mom hadn't bought the dress she wanted, but told me go "go ahead and take head shots". A few weeks after that, when the mom had still not contacted me about a photo shoot, I checked back. She said "Can I call you later?" I made sure she had my phone number and that's the last I have heard from her. And that was at least a month ago.
Do you think I am under any obligation to the grandmother to call her and let her know that I will be happy to do a portrait any time they are ready? I mean, they have my number, and no one has called. Even if they lost my number, they could easily get it from the art museum. I am figuring that I should just leave this alone. Maybe I'll hear from them, and maybe I won't. What do you think? My main concern is that I don't want any misunderstandings and any negative comments about me not meeting obligations, even though I have done what I think I can at this point.
