The final stroke

I realized the art store down the street is giving a 15% discount to all professional artists. I told them my stuff was published in books and magazines in the US and it was a big day when I received my discount card - hey, I am a professional painter! Now I understand the owner of the shop is going on a trip to LA and she said she was going to visit the City Dialogues exhibition she'd read about on my web page. Suddenly I got scared and lost all my confidence; what will happen when she sees those five small water colors on the big white wall at the Barnsdale centre? Will I lose my discount?
