    This is really beautiful work and I like your concept of being "interested" rather than being "interesting" - that way you're focused on what the other is looking for and then you deliver. Excellent work! :)

    I am glad you enjoyed my work. Thanks for stopping by.

    Lots of great tips. The lens looks just beautiful too. Sprinkled with Angel Blessings and added to my Angel lens.

    This is such an interesting take on making art. Of course, it's so important to know what kind of impression you want to make to a potential buyer. Your painting is wonderful!

    Another interesting post, Sharon...

    You gave a lot of tips I have never thought about. It's the same with poetry - I sometimes write something and then put it away for a while, because you see it with different eyes a few days or weeks later

    I love you're helping artists like this!

    I think it's also important to have a great story behind the painting (especially with abstract art); By telling the customer what you experienced while painting livens it up.

    A good story is a great selling tip. I paint on location so often there is a good story to go with the painting and I try to include that in my description. A great title can influence a buyer too. Thanks for your comment.

    Delightfully done. The only art I've ever sold were salt dough models! I wave my Angel blessing paintbrush in your general direction :-)

    It is a wonderful feeling when someone is actually willing to spend money on your art. Thank you for the blessing.

    I think it's very true that things can make a very different impression from different distances. There is a lot of thought-provoking content here.

    I think this so important but not many artists take it in to consideration when putting together a composition. Thanks for leaving a comment.

    Wow, what a fantastic account of not only how to sell your art but of some outstanding works. That Reflections of the Past is like its moving. Blessed and featured on Sprinkled with Stardust

    Thank you skiesgreen for the Stardust. I appreciate having an angel stop by.

    A very interesting lens. You really do wonderful art. :)

    Thank you. I am glad that you enjoyed it.

    Some really great advice for artists here! Thanks for sharing your tips and your artwork, I especially love 'Along the Appian Way'.
  • weavz Apr 28, 2010 @ 11:04 pm | delete
    Thank you. I have always enjoyed painting roads and the trees along it were magnificent.
