Topic Subject : Re: pricing help




Amanda


The fact that you are putting a piece into an art gallery means that you
might want to ask the gallery owner, based on size, content, materials, etc.
That is part of the art galleries responsibility, to help new artists. Also
having an idea as to what similar sculpture, paintings, etc., go for with an
"unknown" artist rather than looking at a Picasso ceramic original of similar
size and content that is worth millions. It's a very difficult part of the
process of making art and then having to put a price on something that may take
dozens or even hundreds of hours of time to complete and not over price the art
when the artist is new to selling their work. Since it's a charity exhibit

pieces may go for higher prices then they might at a non charity venue since
there is more status giving for "charity."
