No, it wasn't Doug. That was a real manager from the restaurant. Her pictures were quite good, I don't see any problem for someone who manages some hip art cafe to be interested in her paintings.
In such extremly realistic film you would expect Amy to go there, talk to manager and give him her paintings, no?
And how did she know that someone bought them?
It was probably Doug who bought the paintings, but the restaurant is real.

but how do you KNOW that? I mean, we never see her actually go to the restaurant and hand the paintings over to the manager or talk face to face with him. She still had that horrible rash Doug gave her so isn't it possible that she used Doug as a go-between to drop the paintings off at the restaurant and then he turned around and pretended to be the manager again and say "oh, by the way, all the paintings sold!" I find it just as possible that was a very good lie concocted by Doug to further gain her trust and make her more dependent on him. At least, that is just my theory.

The manager asks for her to come and drop off the paintings, have a meeting.
As she must take the paintings somewhere, and get money from somewhere, it is a restaurant that serves as the answer to this. But, its Doug that most likely buys them all.
Thats my take on it.

A scene further into the movie she tells someone that she is talking to on the phone that she sold three paintings. I also thought it was him pretending to be the manager of the restaurant until she told whoever she was talking to that she sold her paintings.
