I'm also looking into other more suitable locations, with a higher proportion of erotica lovers, similar to the ones you've mentioned.Jackie Adsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14422573807471118887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-23417944523187835722007-09-03T23:18:00.000+01:002007-09-03T23:18:00.000+01:00you are very welcome :-)you are very welcome :-)Lady in redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835625473505921821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-24776269058900193552007-09-03T23:12:00.000+01:002007-09-03T23:12:00.000+01:00Hi Jackie, Firstly, I love the passion and flair y...Hi Jackie, <BR/><BR/>Firstly, I love the passion and flair you put into your paintings. Congratulations on the well deserved sale. I have been watching your blog and site, with deepest interest.<BR/><BR/>On your previous post, re the investor, a gallery location is a difficult choice - a gallery by the docks is perhaps ideal for painters of yachts. A gallery in Soho is going to take a high price.<BR/><BR/>Just wonder, if maybe exhibiting at related shows would be better - eg. the folsom fair (at least you'd get a trip to the US :-) ), the fetish ball?<BR/><BR/>Anyhow I'm wandering, well done on the sale, your work is stunning.Willsibobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02455291595645468111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-66862497425628401582007-09-03T17:03:00.000+01:002007-09-03T17:03:00.000+01:00Lady in Red - In that case, if you're not big into...Lady in Red - In that case, if you're not big into art, you've given me a nice compliment - thankyou!Jackie Adsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14422573807471118887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-35974683925920814072007-09-03T16:54:00.000+01:002007-09-03T16:54:00.000+01:00I am not big on art but I do know what I find plea...I am not big on art but I do know what I find pleasing to look at and what I dont but could never define any criteria as each piece is different.

So I only have a basic hourly rate for the time spent actually producing it and work from there.<BR/><BR/>Some of the most upsetting words an artist can ever hear regarding the price of their work is "Is that ALL?"Jackie Adsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14422573807471118887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-14072524741862152202007-09-01T13:52:00.000+01:002007-09-01T13:52:00.000+01:00Ive never been able to work out how art is priced,...Ive never been able to work out how art is priced, I mean how can you put a value on the huge emotion a piece of work evokes in one person that might leave another cold. It's such a personal thing. <BR/>I suppose you should work out how much time you spent on a piece - in terms of thought and design as well as execution and then award yourself an hourly rate and go from there. If the pieces go out the door without touching the sides, you're too cheap.Joanna Cakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15944673677004607976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-5821102827348753142007-09-01T10:59:00.000+01:002007-09-01T10:59:00.000+01:00Cherrie - Well I sincerely hope you feel that you ...Cherrie - Well I sincerely hope you feel that you got a bargain with the painting you bought from me! But of course, the value of it will accumulate too as I amass more fame and acclaim - so I hope you feel you've made a good investment as well! <BR/><BR/>And yes, it looks like you were eerily accurate in that I've suddenly sold a painting through a gallery this week after the distinct lack of sales at the exhibition last week!Jackie Adsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14422573807471118887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074984280856396282.post-79303400839121415522007-09-01T10:42:00.000+01:002007-09-01T10:42:00.000+01:00Ronjazz - I'm really pleased you're proud of me!
