Congrats on this new journey of yours. I’m finding what you’re writing very interesting.
Although I’m an artist, I’m in no way a phenomenal one.
What I’ve found when selling my paintings or my glasswork that the more that you ask for your pieces the more people are willing to buy them. I’ve sold approx. $10,000 worth of paintings in the last four years and the ones that I put a $300-$500 price tag on them seem to sell the fastest. I had a doctor that bought enough paintings to fill his entire office and when I gave him a price of $1500, he wrote me a check without a flinch.
I’m looking forward to reading more of what you have to say!
From Rhoda--Dear Jeff, a while ago there was a movie documentary that was called something like THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING: if you can find it you need to watch it. quite relevant to this article.
